In a shocking incident, a 10-kilogram hashish-filled brownie cake and huge amount of opium was seized during a Narcotics Control Bureau raid in the home of a psychologist practicing in a renowned south Mumbai Hospital, an official said on Tuesday. The raid in the home of consulting psychologist Rahmeen Charaniya in Mazgaon on Monday led to the seizure of the cake, being sold under the ''hash brownie'' name, as well as 320 grams of opium and Rs 1.72 lakh cash, he said.

"Charaniya was baking such cakes mixed with weed, hashish and opium. He was supplying them to high-profile clients hosting parties in the city. Charaniya''s questioning led to the arrest of Ramzan Shaikh, from whom the former used to procure weed and hashish. Shaikh was held with 50 grams of hashish from Crawford Market late Monday night," the NCB official said. Both have been charged under Narcotic Drugs and Psychotropic Substances Act, he added.
