The infamous drug scandal of Bengaluru is taking many twists and turns. On Tuesday morning, The Central Crime Branch (CCB) in Bengaluru conducted a sting operation at actor Sanjjanaa Galrani’s residence in the city in connection with the continuing high profile Sandalwood drug scandal. This happened after the CCB had carried out a similar quest at the Yehalanka residence of Kannada film star Ragini Dwivedi on Friday morning in connection with the same case.
