I Need to inquire in depth from those suspects to findout the main source of supply. Arrest them and inquire how they get drugs to the Country. Definitely lot of things will be disclosed. That would help us to stop the one source of supply.

Capital punishment is already there for drug offences. So, let us hang the lot.
