Srinagar: Police on Monday booked a wanted drug smuggler under the Prevention of Illicit Traffic in Narcotic Drugs and Psychotropic Substances (PIT NDPS) Act in Jammu and Kashmir’s Baramulla district.

The most wanted and notorious drug smuggler was identified as Dawood Ahmad Sofi, a resident of Solinda Khaipora Tangmarg who has been booked under the PIT-NDPS Act after obtaining formal detention orders from the competent authority and subsequently detained and lodged in Central Jail Kot-balwal Jammu, police said.

Pertinent to mention here that many cases were registered against the drug smuggler, who was involved in promoting drug abuse by supplying drugs to local youth in Tangmarg & other areas of the district.

Despite his involvement in many FIRs, he did not mend his activities and was again involved in promoting drug abuse by supplying drugs to local youth.
