Ankola, June 10: Ankola police on Saturday night arrested 14 persons who were part of an alleged rave party at Honey beach resort, located at Honnebail village of the taluk.

Uttara Kannada police said that Ankola police raided the resort at 11.30 pm and found four semi-nude women dancing to the tunes of the English music. Eight others who were present there had been throwing currency notes at the dancing women. Other two persons, who had organized the party were also arrested.

Police said Raja Kumar Shetty, Sandeep Shetty, Sachin Shetty, Areef Inayatullah, Yashwant Pujari, Harish Shetty and Madhu Venkappa Shetty, all residents of Mangalore were busy partying when police raided the resort. Police have withheld the name of the women who were also arrested. Police also arrested Venkataraman Nayak and Harish Nayak organizers of the party. Police seized Rs 1.23 lakh, 10 mobile phones and the sound systems from the place of offence. All arrested persons were released on the bail.

This incident has again highlighted that Karwar may be emerging as the hub for the distribution of the drugs to the Goa, Gokarna and Honnebail beaches where the rave parties are being allegedly organized on a regular basis. Sources said narcotic substances are being brought to Karwar from Himachal Pradesh, Uttra Pradesh and Bihar. It may be recalled that a few months back, police had arrested a woman from Himachal Pradesh at Karwar railway station in possession of ganja worth Rs 90 lakhs. Her companion hailing from HP escaped.

Police sources said that investigation is on to find out whether the drugs were being distributed in the party, reacting to an allegation by locals that narcotics were in use at the party.
