• Three suspects were arrested, including school director Malela Jaya Prakash Goud, driver Pentamol Uday Sai, and courier Goute Murali Sai.
• Parts of the building were converted into a hidden lab while classes continued elsewhere, and officers reported reactors and dryers configured for large-scale production.
