gs to innocent youth of the area for gaining undue profits from sale of narcotics and are responsible for overdose deaths due to drugs happening in the area. These peddlers have become a nightmare for the parents of the vulnerable children who are out of their homes either for tuitions or in hostels in Jammu,” he added.
Pertinent to mention here that this is 5th FIR in last 15 days after the launch of Zero Tolerance policy against drug peddlers by SDPO City West Jammu Dr Satish Bhardwaj JKPS, SHO Bakshi Nagar Sajid Mughal, SHO Janipur Pawan Dogra and I/C PP Sarwal Maan Singh and their team.

Their financial investigation is also going on to know about the property acquired by these black sheep and to further attach their illegitimate property which is proceeds of narcotics.
Police’s swift action and apprehension of these black sheep has been appreciated by the public.
Police have warned all the drug peddlers to abstain from this immoral trade and mend their ways otherwise they will be put behind bars very soon.
