Jammu and Kashmir Authorities Attach and Demolish Properties Linked to Drug OffendersPreviousNext

Authorities in Jammu and Kashmir have taken action against drug trafficking by attaching and demolishing properties linked to narcotics offenders. Srinagar Police attached 10 immovable properties worth around Rs 8 crore under the NDPS Act, identifying them as assets acquired through drug proceeds. Meanwhile, Kathua administration demolished properties valued at approximately Rs 3.5 crore belonging to accused drug peddlers on encroached government land. These measures aim to disrupt drug networks by targeting their financial assets and reinforce ongoing efforts to combat narcotics-related crimes in the region.
