Cops issue advisory after Golf Green flat deaths
Kolkata: Kolkata Police has urged landlords in and around Golf Green to be more vigilant while renting out their properties following the deaths of a young man and woman in an apartment at Arabinda Nagar, an incident that has exposed alleged drug-fuelled parties operating in the area.The advisory comes two days after the bodies of the young couple were found inside a flat and three of their friends were arrested in connection with the suspected drug overdose case.Investigators probing the deaths have found that the apartment, rented by Mohammad Dilshad, one of the deceased, was allegedly being used regularly for house parties attended by young men and women. Police claim that drugs and alcohol were consumed at these gatherings and that obscene social media reels were filmed inside the flat.A senior Kolkata Police officer said that the apartment had effectively become a hub of substance abuse, with several young people allegedly frequenting the premises for drug and alcohol consumption.The investigation has also prompted concerns among locals. According to police, many residents of Arabinda Nagar have alleged that similar parties are being organised in several other rented flats across the neighbourhood.
In response, police have asked property owners to closely monitor the activities of tenants and personally verify the nature of gatherings taking place on their premises. Landlords have also been directed to submit fresh tenant verification forms for rented flats in the area as part of a renewed scrutiny drive.
