J&K police’s SIA chargesheet two in narco-terror case

The Jammu & Kashmir Police’s special cell, State Investigation Agency (SIA), on Monday filed a chargesheet against two persons for allegedly “operating a narco-terror financing module in the Union Territory (U.T.)“.

An SIA spokesperson said the investigating agency filed a chargesheet against Zaheed Ahmad Khoja and Zameer Ahmad Lone under various provisions of the NDPS Act and UA(P) Act in a special designated UAPA court.

Khoja was arrested in September last year when he was allegedly transporting a huge consignment of heroin, weighing 3.565 kg and worth ₹25 crore. “Lone is an active terrorist of the Lashkar-e-Taiba (LeT), originally a resident of Kashmir, and now based in Pakistan and Pakistan Occupied Kashmir (POK),” the SIA said.
