Srinagar:
In a major crackdown on drug trafficking and its financial networks, Srinagar Police have attached a double-storey residential house along with a cowshed, valued at approximately ₹1.2 crore, belonging to two notorious drug peddlers in the city.
The attached property belongs to Gh. Nabi Wani, son of late Ali Mohammad Wani, and his son Parvaiz Ahmad Wani, residents of Karnabal Panzinara. The accused are involved in FIR No. 81/2025, registered under Sections 8/20 and 29 of the Narcotic Drugs and Psychotropic Substances (NDPS) Act at Police Station Shalteng.
According to the police, the attachment was carried out under the relevant provisions of the NDPS Act after investigations revealed that the property had been acquired through illicit proceeds generated from drug trafficking activities. Consequently, the property was attached under Section 68-F of the NDPS Act.
The attachment proceedings were conducted in the presence of two independent witnesses and in strict compliance with prescribed legal procedures. As per the attachment order, the owners have been restrained from selling, leasing, transferring, altering, or creating any third-party interest in the said property until further orders.
Srinagar Police reiterated their unwavering commitment to eliminating the menace of drugs from society by targeting not only offenders but also the financial infrastructure that sustains the narcotics trade, strictly in accordance with the law.
The public has been urged to cooperate with the police by sharing credible information to help curb drug trafficking and safeguard society from its harmful effects.
