 The arrested have been identified as Sivasena Idukki district organiser Anju Master, P R Bijumon, an advocate, Sinu and Abin, who is working with the district bank Santhanpara  branch. 

The team was busted by a shadow police team led by Kattappana DySP NC Rajmohan. “We have held three people with hash oil, one of them is a Sivasena worker,” Rajmohan told TNM.
