Heroin seized, drug trafficker arrested in Reasi Police’s operation Jeevandan

Reasi Police, in their ongoing drive against drug abuse under Operation Jeevandan, apprehended a notorious drug peddler identified as Pardeep Singh.

The arrest occurred during a surprise naka checking at the Sulla area. Singh was found in possession of 3 grams of heroin-like substance, along with packaging materials and a weighing scale.

An FIR has been registered under the NDPS Act, and investigations are underway to identify Singh’s associates and track the drug’s origin and distribution network. The operation was led by SHO Chaman Gorka under the supervision of Dy.SP Neeraj Padyar.

SSP Reasi, Mohita Sharma, highlighted the multi-pronged approach Reasi Police is taking to tackle drug abuse. This includes public awareness programs alongside active prosecution of drug peddlers under the NDPS Act. An Anti-Drug Helpline (9070907017) has also been established, where callers can anonymously report drug-related activities.

SSP Sharma issued a stern warning to drug peddlers, stating there is “no space” for them in Reasi. She urged them to abandon this path and return to society or face strict legal consequences.
