Sopore, Dec 27(NVI): In a major crackdown on drug trafficking, the Sopore police have attached the property of a notorious drug peddler under the NDPS Act, 1985.
The attached asset, a two-story residential house valued at approximately Rs 17 lakh, is located in Adipora Sopore and belongs to Ishrat Ahmad Mir, son of Abdul Kabir Mir.
Investigations revealed that the property was acquired using proceeds from narcotics trafficking and was utilized to facilitate illicit drug trade activities. Acting decisively, the police targeted the financial assets of the accused, crippling his ability to sustain illegal operations.
“This step is part of a broader strategy to combat drug abuse and trafficking by depriving offenders of their ill-gotten gains,” said a senior police official.
The move has garnered widespread appreciation from the local community, who see it as a significant measure to protect society from the devastating impact of drug abuse. (News Vibes of India)
