These assets belonged to Mohd Asif, son of Sanak Mohd, a resident of Village Hartayan, Rehambal, in District Udhampur, identified as a notorious drug peddler.
The decisive action was carried out under the stringent provisions of Section 68(F) of the Narcotic Drugs and Psychotropic Substances (NDPS) Act, reflecting the unwavering commitment of the force, operating under the overall leadership of Senior Superintendent of Police (SSP) Udhampur, Amod Ashok Nagpure, IPS, to cripple the drug trade. This move to seize substantial assets sends a clear message about the comprehensive strategy being employed to tackle the narcotics menace in the district.
The accused, Mohd Asif, is already implicated in FIR No. 14/2025, registered at Police Station Rehambal under Sections 8/21/22 of the NDPS Act. The current attachment of his assets is a critical step in the ongoing legal proceedings aimed at dismantling his illicit operations and ensuring that crime does not pay. The official attachment order was passed today by the designated investigating officer as part of the comprehensive investigation into Mohd Asif’s drug-related activities. The properties seized as part of this major operation include a fleet of four vehicles, believed to have been acquired through the proceeds of drug trafficking: a Truck bearing Registration No. JK14J-6362, another Truck bearing Registration No. JK14J-8369, a third Truck with Registration No. JK20C-4698, and a Bolero Car bearing Registration No. JK14J-4983.
This success is attributed to the meticulous and persistent efforts of the investigating teams. Crucial groundwork and intelligence gathering by field units, including the notable contributions from Police Post Tikri under the charge of Probationary Sub-Inspector (PSI) Manveer Singh, played a vital role in identifying and tracing these assets, facilitating this significant attachment. Such proactive policing at the post level is instrumental in broader district-wide anti-drug operations, highlighting the importance of dedicated officers like PSI Manveer Singh in the fight against narcotics.
SSP Udhampur, Amod Ashok Nagpure, IPS, has consistently emphasized a zero-tolerance policy towards drug-related crimes.
