In an important step in the fight against drugs, the Lalpora Police have arrested a well-known drug dealer who had been hiding from the law for over a year. The man, Jameel Khan, is 35 years old and lives in Dever Lolab.
Khan was wanted for a case registered under the Narcotic Drugs and Psychotropic Substances (NDPS) Act at the Lalpora Police Station. The case was filed on November 14, 2023, and since then, he had been on the run to avoid being caught.
After a lot of hard work and good information, the police team from Lalpora carried out a planned operation that led to Khan’s arrest. This capture is an important move in the ongoing efforts to reduce drug-related problems in the area and shows the Kupwara Police’s commitment to creating a drug-free community.
Kupwara Police are asking the public to help in the fight against drugs by reporting any suspicious activities. They encourage people to share information anonymously, assuring that strict action will be taken against anyone involved in drug dealing.
This successful arrest not only shows the police’s effectiveness but also highlights the importance of community support in tackling the drug issue. Together, with the help of the public, Kupwara Police aim to build a safer, drug-free environment for everyone.
