Budgam's Massive Drug Haul: 325 kg of Contraband Seized

In a significant blow to drug trafficking in Jammu and Kashmir, the Budgam Police have uncovered a major drug racket, seizing an astonishing 325 kilograms of contraband substances. This operation, a part of their ongoing campaign against the illegal drug trade, took place in the Chadoora area, where a residential house had become a hub for illicit activities.

The bust was a result of a well-coordinated effort following a tip-off. The Chadoora police station received specific information about three individuals, Ghulam Rasool Wani, Mohd Altaf Wani, and Gh. Nabi Wani, who were suspected of concealing a large quantity of hashish-like substance in their home. Under the watchful eye of an Executive Magistrate, a police team conducted a thorough search, uncovering 27 nylon bags containing the illegal substance. The sheer volume of the contraband, weighing 325 kilograms, underscores the magnitude of this operation's success.

This raid is a testament to the security forces' revised strategy, which focuses on dismantling the entire terror ecosystem. By targeting drug smugglers and those involved in hawala money rackets, the authorities aim to cut off the financial lifeline of terrorism in the region. The operation highlights the commitment of the Budgam Police to eradicate the drug menace and their proactive approach in acting on intelligence.

As the investigation continues under FIR No. 181/2025, the police have urged the public to remain vigilant and report any suspicious activities. This collaborative effort between law enforcement and the community is crucial in maintaining security and stability in the region, ensuring that the funds generated from illegal activities do not fuel further terrorist operations.
