ANANTNAG: In a significant and pioneering action against drug trafficking, SSP Anantnag Shri Amod Ashok Nagpure-IPS, has ordered the auction of a vehicle used in the commission of narcotics offences, marking the first such initiative in UT JK under the provisions of the NDPS Act.

The vehicle bearing registration No. DL8CR0936, which was seized in connection with a narcotics case, has been ordered for disposal after obtaining necessary legal sanction from the Hon’ble Court under Section 52-A of the Narcotic Drugs and Psychotropic Substances (NDPS) Act.

This decisive action reflects the firm resolve of Police to dismantle the infrastructure supporting the drug trade and to ensure that assets used in narcotics trafficking are not allowed to be reclaimed or reused for illegal activities.

Police remains committed to a zero-tolerance approach against drug menace and will continue to take stringent legal action against individuals involved in drug peddling, trafficking, and other related offences.
