In a significant crackdown on drug trafficking, Udhampur police have confiscated property valued at Rs 50 lakh from an alleged drug peddler named Amit Singh. The operation was conducted under the Narcotic Drugs and Psychotropic Substances (NDPS) Act, according to authorities.
The investigation uncovered that Singh had used proceeds from the illegal narcotics trade to purchase a residential property in the village of Preyan Sounthan and a KTM Duke motorcycle. These findings prompted the authorities to attach both movable and immovable assets for legal proceedings.
