Anantnag, May 05: Continuing its intensified crackdown on drug trafficking and the narcotics network, Anantnag Police has dealt a major blow to the drug mafia by attaching immovable property worth approximately ₹85 lakh under the NDPS Act.
Acting under Section 68(F) of the NDPS Act, Police Station Srigufwara attached a single-storey residential house belonging to Imtiyaz Ahmad Ganie, son of Lassi Ganie, a resident of Shalgam, Srigufwara. The property has been identified as proceeds of illicit drug trafficking.
The accused is linked to FIR No. 72/2022 registered at Police Station Srigufwara under relevant sections of the NDPS Act. During the investigation, it was established that the property had been acquired using illegal earnings from the narcotics trade.
Following due legal procedures, the property has been formally attached in accordance with the provisions of the NDPS Act.
Officials said the action is part of a sustained drive to dismantle the financial networks supporting drug trafficking in the district. By targeting illegally acquired assets, police aim not only to prosecute offenders but also to weaken the economic backbone of the narcotics trade.
Anantnag Police reiterated its commitment to eliminating the drug menace and warned that strict legal action, including property attachment, will continue against those involved in narcotics activities.
