Gurugram, Feb 2 A joint team of the Chief Minister's flying squad and the drugs control department raided two cafes in Sector-53 on the intervening night of Thursday and Friday and nabbed three persons for allegedly serving hookah and narcotic substance to the customers, the police said on Friday.

The accused have been identified as Kamal, manager of Xero Degree cafe, Prabhakar, manager of Imli cafe, and another person named Sajid.
