Desi breaking bad: This Hyderabadi man was cultivating ganja in his flat and is now arrested

Cannabis might be illegal in our nation, but it might be running in the veins of the nation, illegally. We all have heard of farmers growing ganja midst of sprawling paddy to feed the drug circuit but here's a peddler, who harvests it in his two-bedroom flat. And he does it with scientific precision under controlled temperatures to allow cannabis to flower from seed with video tips from an American friend.

Syed Shahed Hussain, 33, is a former bank employee and operates from a flat at Friends Colony in Manikonda and uses a lot of science in the procedure. He was caught when Special Task Force personnel raided the apartment and seized plants, but were awe-struck with facilities, including humidifiers and LED lights to provide the right ambience.

Shahed was caught in the act while selling ganja to customers at Golconda on Sunday night.

Shahed has a bachelor's degree in psychology and has been staying at a rented flat at YK Residency in Friends Colony, Manikonda, for the past three months. He lives with his family in the flat.
