54 drug smugglers have been booked under PIT- NDPS Act/ PSA in north Kashmir’s baramulla district after obtaining formal detention order from the competent authorities and lodged in different jails, Police said.
As per the Police statement, thesse “hard-core” drug peddlers were operating in Uri, Pattan , Baramulla, Kreeri and Tangmarg sub divisions.
Pertinent to mention that many cases are registered against these drug Smugglers and were involved in promoting drug abuse trade by supplying drugs to local youth of District Baramulla, Police claimed.
Despite their involvement in many FIR’s, they did not mend their activities and were again involved in promoting drug abuse trade by supplying drugs to local youth.
“Sustained action against drug peddlers has brought a visible change in the ground situation and drug abuse has seen a considerable downfall in Baramulla district,” police spokesperson said in a statement.
