Third accomplice arrested, network tied to RajasthanAfzal, under interrogation, has claimed to have bought drugs many times from his friend Arbaaz. Once Arbaaz had been jailed, he approached his father-in-law, Kifayatullah, to get 22 grams of MD powder. He was found in possession of 3.30 grams of MD powder, a OnePlus mobile phone, and a bicycle.
