| DB uphold PSA of Narco Smuggler | | | Early Times Report
JAMMU, Feb 13: A Division Bench of Jammu & Kashmir and Ladakh High Court comprising Chief Justice N Kotishwar Singh and Justice MA Chowdhary uphold Order No. DIVCOM-K/279/22 dated 19.10.2022 (for short 'detention order') passed in terms of the Prevention of Illicit Trafficking in Narcotic Drugs and Psychotropic Substances Act 1988 by the Divisional Commissioner Kashmir and dismissed the appeal filed by Jahangir Ahmed Dar.
DB while dismissing the appeal, observed that having regard to the geo-political location of the UT of Jammu & Kashmir bordering hostile neighbouring Countries, which have been pushing drugs to this part of the Country not only for illegal trade but to use the proceeds thereof in the sustenance of cross border terrorism, so the menace of drugs in this part of Country has to be seriously looked into having its wider ramifications as smuggling and trade of the narcotics will not only destabilize the economy of the area but shall also be detrimental to the national interest if the proceeds of illegal trade are used to sustain the terrorism.
DB did not find any perversity or illegality in the judgment passed by the Single Judge, as all the important aspects as were required had been dealt with. 20. The appeal for the aforestated reasons is found to be without any merit and substance and is, thus, dismissed along with pending application(s). —JNF |
