Hyderabad police Monday arrested Telugu film actor Nanduri Uday Kiran and a Nigerian national for drug trafficking. They were apprehended at Jubliee Hills checkpost and seized 15 grams of cocaine, a police official said.
The

staying in the city.
According
to police, 29-year-old Nanduri Uday Kiran, who acted in films like
“Parare”, “Rakshakulu”, “Yuvarajyam” and “Facebook”, was receiving the
drugs from the other accused whenever required.
