ANANTNAG: In its relentless crackdown against drug trafficking and the narcotics ecosystem, police in Anantnag has taken another major action against proceeds of drug crime by attaching immovable property belonging to a notorious drug peddler under the provisions of the NDPS Act.

Police Station Srigufwara, acting under Section 68(F) of the NDPS Act, attached one single-storeyed residential house with an estimated market value of approximately ₹85 lakhs, belonging to Imtiyaz Ahmad Ganie son of Lassi Ganie resident of Shalgam, Srigufwara.

The said accused is involved in case FIR No. 72/2022 registered at Police Station Srigufwara under relevant provisions of the NDPS Act. Investigation had established that the attached property was acquired through illicit proceeds generated from narcotics trafficking. Accordingly, the property has been attached as per due legal procedure under the provisions of the NDPS Act.

By targeting illegally acquired assets, Police aim not only to prosecute offenders but also to dismantle the economic backbone of the drug network. Police reiterates its firm resolve to make the district drug-free and warns all those involved in narcotics trafficking that strict legal action, including attachment of illegally acquired properties, shall continue relentlessly.
