In a significant operation, Baramulla Police recovered approximately 1.7 kilograms of charas in the Chichilora area of Kunzer during a routine patrol on March 24. The police intercepted a suspicious vehicle, leading to the arrest of one suspect, while another managed to escape.
The driver of the vehicle, identified as Waheed Sultan, was found with 27 grams of charas in his possession. Following this, police conducted a search at the residence of the absconding suspect, where they discovered an additional 1.690 kilograms of charas powder.
A case has been registered under FIR No.35/2026 at the Police Station Kunzer, as authorities continue to address the ongoing drug menace in the region. Baramulla Police have reiterated their commitment to curbing drug-related activities, emphasizing the importance of community safety.
In a separate incident, the Jammu and Kashmir Police took precautionary measures after discovering a live artillery shell in the Kalgai forest area near the Line of Control. A Bomb Disposal Squad (BDS) team was deployed to neutralize and dispose of the shell, ensuring the safety of the surrounding area.
The discovery of the artillery shell highlights the ongoing challenges faced by law enforcement in Jammu and Kashmir, where security concerns are compounded by the presence of illegal substances and potential threats to civilian safety.
As the police continue their efforts to combat drug trafficking and ensure public safety, observers are keenly watching how these operations will evolve in the coming weeks. The commitment of the Baramulla Police to tackle these issues remains strong, but the complexities of the region present ongoing challenges.
Details remain unconfirmed regarding the broader implications of these recent events, but the police’s proactive measures signal a determined approach to maintaining law and order in Baramulla.
