According to a statement issued here, “Acting swiftly on a specific and reliable input, the Anti-Narcotics Task Force (ANTF) Jammu achieved a major success by recovering approximately 500 grams of Heroin and arresting one interstate drug smuggler involved in the illicit narcotics trade”
During the operation, a team of ANTF Jammu intercepted the suspect following sustained surveillance and credible intelligence regarding drug trafficking activity.

In this connection, FIR No. 03/2025 U/S 8/21/22 NDPS Act has been registered at Police Station ANTF Jammu, and further investigation has been initiated to unearth the backward and forward linkages of this interstate drug trafficking network.
