A 34-year old man was arrested for selling ganja (cannabis) at Priyanka Nagar, near KR Puram, East Bengaluru, on Saturday, police said.
Kumar Biswas, a native of Nadia district, West Bengal, is accused of sourcing the banned substance from his home state and illegally cultivating some of it in an empty field near Seegehalli, where he is living. Police added that they had seized 800-gram ganja from him.
Biswas came to Bengaluru three years ago and was working as a labourer. A local court has remanded him in judicial custody.
