A local court in Karachi has approved a three-day physical remand of alleged cocaine dealer Anmol, also known as Pinky, in connection with narcotics and attempted murder cases.
Police presented the suspect before the City Court under tight security arrangements as investigators sought custody to further probe the case. Authorities said the accused is allegedly linked to cocaine supply operations and other serious criminal activities across Karachi.
Court Hands Suspect Over to Police
According to police officials, investigators requested physical remand to complete interrogation and gather further evidence related to the case. The court approved the request and handed Anmol alias Pinky over to police custody for three days.
Officials stated that several criminal cases have already been registered against the suspect at different police stations in Karachi. These cases reportedly include narcotics trafficking, cocaine dealing, and attempted murder charges.
The case has drawn significant attention due to the suspect’s alleged links to a wider drug network operating in the city.
DIG South Confirms Ongoing Investigation
Speaking to the media, DIG South Asad Raza confirmed that the suspect was produced before the court amid strict security measures.
He stated that investigators would question Anmol alias Pinky about other individuals allegedly connected to the network. Police are attempting to trace the broader chain involved in the supply and distribution of narcotics in Karachi.
The senior police officer added that law enforcement agencies are continuing operations against major drug dealers as part of efforts to curb narcotics-related crimes in the city.
More Arrests Likely in Drug Network Probe
Police officials indicated that additional arrests are expected as the investigation progresses. Authorities believe information obtained during interrogation could help uncover other members involved in the alleged drug trade network.
DIG South Asad Raza said the crackdown against large-scale drug dealers would continue in order to eliminate the growing menace of narcotics from Karachi.
Law enforcement agencies in Karachi have intensified anti-narcotics operations in recent months amid concerns over the spread of illegal drugs among young people and the rise in organized criminal activity linked to narcotics trafficking.
