Jammu Police bust ring allegedly supplying 80% of district’s drugs
In a major clampdown against narco-terrorism and organised drug trafficking, Jammu Police has arrested three key operatives of an interstate narcotics syndicate from Amritsar, Punjab, and recovered a large cache of arms, ammunition, heroin, cash and vehicles during a coordinated operation.
The arrested accused have been identified as Surajdeep Singh alias Suraj, a resident of Jandiala, Harpreet Singh alias Raju, and Jaspreet. The arrests were made in connection with multiple cases registered under FIR No. 51/2026 at Police Station Miran Sahib, FIR No. 58/2026 at Police Station Bishnah, FIR No. 137/2026 at Police Station Nagrota and FIR No. 48/2026 at Police Station Gangyal.
According to a police spokesman, the three accused were major suppliers of narcotic substances to Jammu district and were allegedly responsible for supplying nearly 80 per cent of the drugs trafficked into the district. The operation was launched following sustained surveillance and meticulous intelligence-based investigations.
Police said the accused were part of the backward link network of notorious narcotics trafficker Lau Gujjar and his associates operating in Jammu and Kashmir. Investigations into previous NDPS cases and the arrest and questioning of several accused, including Lateef, Bachu, Majeeda and Mushtaq, led investigators to Suraj and Raju, who were identified as crucial links in the drug supply chain.
