Sopore’s law enforcement dealt a heavy blow to narcotics peddlers on April 25, arresting two key figures in separate raids as part of the ongoing ‘Nasha Mukt Jammu-Kashmir’ initiative. Contraband drugs were recovered, intensifying efforts to purge the area of toxic influences.
Patrols near Chinkipora’s public park led to the detention of Zubair Ahmad Malla after discovering Spasmoproxine capsules during a body search. The banned items were confiscated, and a case under NDPS sections 8/20 was lodged at Bomai thana, with detectives probing deeper connections.
In a parallel incident at Shivia Crossing, Shaukat Ahmad Shah was nabbed during a naka check. Officers found charas in his possession, prompting an FIR at Sopore station under NDPS section 8/21. Both arrests highlight vigilant policing amid rising drug threats.
Authorities are meticulously tracing origins of the seized substances, aiming to uproot extensive smuggling rings. Sopore police emphasized their unwavering ‘zero tolerance’ policy, promising sustained crackdowns and targeted intelligence operations. Residents are encouraged to stay alert, as these actions pave the way for a safer, substance-free Jammu and Kashmir, protecting youth from addiction’s grip.
