A 28-year-old model and former Mrs Kerala 2025 contestant, Harsha Sunny, has been arrested at Mumbai's Chhatrapati Shivaji Maharaj International Airport after customs officials allegedly recovered more than 11 kg of hydroponic marijuana valued at INR 11.82 crore from her luggage.
According to officials, Harsha Sunny arrived in Mumbai from Bangkok on the night of June 10-11 aboard Air India flight TG-351. During routine surveillance, officers from the Air Intelligence Unit (AIU) and the Customs Department reportedly found her behaviour suspicious and decided to conduct a detailed inspection.
Upon searching her trolley bag, officials discovered 12 vacuum-sealed plastic packets containing a green substance. A preliminary test conducted using a Narcotic Drugs and Psychotropic Substances (NDPS) testing kit reportedly confirmed the substance to be high-grade hydroponic marijuana.
Customs officials subsequently arrested Harsha Sunny under the provisions of the NDPS Act for allegedly attempting to smuggle banned narcotics into India. ISI-Backed Dawood Ibrahim’s Drug Cartel Goes Rural to Evade the Net.

The probe remains ongoing, with officials examining possible connections and supply routes linked to the seizure.
