The police department in R.T. Nagar has suspended inspector Ashwath Gowda and sub-inspector Veerabhadraiah for failing to conduct a proper investigation. According to sources, the police officers who transformed into drug dealers were able to get bail barely two days after their arrest due to a lack of investigation.

On January 13, the suspected cops were apprehended by the police.Five people had been arrested in connection with the investigation. The defendants bought drugs from drug dealers and sold them in Bengaluru.  To avoid any suspicions, the accused cops received drugs through a delivery service near CM Bommai's home.
