MUMBAI:
In July 1987, Directorate of Revenue Intelligence (DRI) officers were tipped off about a huge quantity of hashish concealed in drums of mango chutney slated for export to London. The drums were stored in a gala in Suyog Industrial Estate in Vikhroli, which was hired by Bhanushali through a broker, Suryakant Sachde.
A search by DRI officials led to the recovery of 550 plastic drums, among which 194 drums were packed with 4,365 kgs of dark brown hashish worth over ₹2.619 crore.
