PALAKKAD: The Kerala police lost their way while searching for a ganja plantation and got trapped in the deep green jungles of Mukkali forest in Mannarkkad. A team including Palakkad Agali DySP and other staff from Mukkali Forest Station was trapped inside the forest.

The team tried to seize a cannabis plantation inside the forest. However, the labyrinthine route proved to be a game-changer as the police lost their way and were left with no idea how to travel back to their base. Meanwhile, the police department has informed that all officers in the mission are safe and will be brought back by Wednesday morning.

On Monday night, a joint team comprising police and forest department personnel went into the forest for regular inspection. It is reported that everyone in the group is safe and no one has contacted any health ailments.
