Hyderabad: The Hyderabad Commissioner’s Task Force, South Zone Team, along with Bahadurpura Police, raided an illegal hookah parlour operating under the guise of a café in Bahadurpura. A total of seven individuals, including four customers, were arrested during the operation.
According to police, "The Wolf Café & Lounge," located in Bahadurpura, was illegally providing hookah to customers. The Bahadurpura Police registered a case under Sections 223 BNS, and Sections 6 & 7 of the COTP Act.
The arrested individuals include Mohd Abdul Muzammil (26), the owner of Wolf Café & Lounge; MohdFurkhan Ahmed (18), the manager; Mohd Nazeer (41), a hookah flavor supplier; and four customers. Police seized 19 hookah pots, five boxes of hookah flavors, and six boxes of hookah coils, all valued at Rs 30,000.
