"If needed, arrangements will be made to send them to correctional facilities. However, even then, if the drug addicts are not corrected, legal action will be taken against them," he said.
The DMP commissioner handed over prizes to the winners in various categories in recognition of their excellent work at the monthly crime review meeting of last month.
