In a recent development, a Special Police Officer (SPO) in District Doda has been disengaged from his services following his arrest on charges of drug peddling. As reported by The Chenab Times earlier, Javed Ahmed, who was serving as an SPO and posted in the District Police Line, was apprehended by the police on 25th March 2023, with Charas in his possession.
The arrest came after reliable sources informed the police that Javed Ahmed was involved in the buying and selling of Charas. A case under the provisions of the NDPS Act was registered against him at the Police Station in Doda, and an enquiry was also initiated by the department for service misconduct on his part.
During the course of the enquiry, it was found that Javed Ahmed was indeed involved in the black trade of Charas, and his services were subsequently disengaged by the DPO Doda order on 3rd May 2023, issued by SSP Doda, as per statement issued by police to The Chenab Times.
This incident highlights the need for greater vigilance and stricter measures against drug peddling in the area. It is heartening to see that the police are taking the issue seriously and are willing to take action against anyone involved in the narcotics trade. SSP Doda, Shri Abdul Qayoom- JKPS, has urged the public to cooperate with the police and help them in their efforts to rid the society of drugs.
It is imperative that the police continue to take proactive steps to curb the drug menace, and the public must also play their part in supporting the police. The disengagement of the SPO from his services is a positive step towards achieving this goal. However, more needs to be done to prevent such incidents from occurring in the future.
