Recent Arrests in Jammu Related to Narco-Terrorism
Earlier, on Friday, Jammu Police arrested an accused involved in a narco-terror case and seized weapons and ammunition. The South Zone Police of Jammu, as part of Operation Sanjeevani, have intensified efforts against the narco-terror network, making significant progress through detailed investigations in a high-profile case.
A First Information Report (FIR) was registered on November 14, 2025, at Gandhi Nagar Police Station under the Narcotic Drugs and Psychotropic Substances (NDPS) Act. During a patrol, two individuals were detained, leading to the exposure of a well-organised terrorist group involved in drug trafficking.
The investigation led to the arrest of several suspects, including smugglers, financial handlers, and middlemen operating from jail. Authorities recovered approximately 4.95 kilograms of heroin, three pistols, live cartridges, and a vehicle, revealing the group’s cross-border connections.
The joint efforts of Jammu Police and security forces continue as part of a broader strategy to counter narcotics and terror-related activities in the region.
