Malkhana At Court Complex Robbed: A Bollywood-Style Heist Of Drugs And Contraband

[ad_1]
by Raashid Andrabi
SRINAGAR: In a dramatic turn of events that could have been lifted straight out of a Bollywood script, a high-security seizure room, also known as Malkhana, at the court complex in Rajouri has been robbed of seized drugs and contraband substances.
This brazen heist has resulted in the loss of a staggering 4 kilograms of heroin, 1.5 kilograms of charas, a large quantity of drugs and capsules, and fake currency. The theft of such a large quantity of illegal substances has sent shockwaves through the community, and law enforcement agencies are scrambling to track down the perpetrators of this audacious crime.
The incident, which occurred in the early hours of Tuesday morning, has left the local police department in disarray. While the Senior Superintendent of Police (SSP) and other senior police officials were tight-lipped about the matter, sources have revealed that an FIR has been registered at the Rajouri police station.
The incident has left the police and judiciary baffled as Malkhana is known for its high-security measures.
The stolen items are valued at several lakh of rupees, and the incident has sparked a wave of concern in the region. This is a unique case of theft, and the local police and judiciary are taking the matter very seriously.
The incident has caused a great deal of distress in the region, with many questioning how such a theft could take place in a high-security area. The stolen drugs and contraband could have a significant impact on the local drug trade and could lead to further crime in the region.
The incident is still under investigation, and officials are working to get to the bottom of what happened. Until then, residents will continue to demand answers and call for more effective security measures to be put in place.
