Property Worth 1.2 Crores Attached In Anti-Narcotics Drive In Anantnag: Police

Srinagar, November 06(GNS) Police on Tuesday said that in a decisive step against narcotics trafficking, Police have attached the property of a known drug trafficker, under the Narcotic Drugs and Psychotropic Substances (NDPS) Act in South Kashmir’s Anantnag district.

In a handout to GNS, the police said that Mohammad Ashraf Dar, son of Jalal-Ud-Din and resident of Tulkhan Bijbehara, has a history of offenses under the NDPS Act, with several cases involving the trafficking of substances like Codeine Phosphate, Charas, and Spasmo Proxyvan Plus. His most recent offense was on April 4, 2021, when a major drug haul was seized, including 70 bottles of Codeine Phosphate, 34.7 kg of Charas powder, and 4,320 capsules of Spasmo Proxyvan Plus.

According to police spokesman, further investigations revealed that his two sons, Inayat Ah Dar and Sahil Ah Dar, were also arrested in 2024 on drug-related charges. Inayat Ah Dar was arrested in Case FIR No. 13/2024, with 9 bottles of Codeine Phosphate, and Sahil Ah Dar was apprehended in Case FIR No. 36/2024, with 12 bottles of the same substance.

Despite Mohammad Ashraf Dar’s stated income from agriculture, an investigation revealed that his three-storey residence in Tulkhan, valued at around 1.2 crores, was acquired through proceeds from his illicit drug activities. Consequently, Anantnag Police, via Police Station Bijbehara, enforced Section 68(1) of the NDPS Act to attach the property, preventing its sale or alteration, he said.

This action demonstrates Anantnag Police’s strong commitment to dismantling the financial base of the drug trade and serves as a clear warning that illicit gains from narcotics trafficking will not be permitted. Anantnag Police remain dedicated to eliminating the narcotics network through continuous and strategic measures, reads the statement.(GNS)
