A worker at the Muchhad Paanwala shop told mid-day that the drug that was seized by NCB officers was given to owner Ramkumar Tiwari claiming that it was some herbal product and could be sold by mixing it in paan or cigarettes. 

Shyam Kumar, who has been working at the shop for over 20 years now, claims to have seen accused Karan Sajanani handing over the packet to Tiwari. However, during his interrogation Sajanani told the NCB officials that he had mixed CBD oil and marijuana in the 500 gm mixture that he handed over to Tiwari. Tiwari was produced in court on Tuesday and sent to judicial custody.
