Shimla: In a significant breakthrough, Shimla Police dismantled yet another drug-peddling gang, leading to the detention of two youths as the district police continue their crackdown against the drug trade. Authorities believe that these arrests will contribute to an eventual end to organized drug peddling in the area.
Sanjeev Kumar Gandhi, Superintendent of Shimla Police, outlined the challenges posed by drug trafficking in the region and the police’s concerted efforts to tackle the problem.
“The challenge of drug peddling was standing in front of us in a very alarming position. In this direction, Shimla Police is working with full commitment. As we know, people from every walk of life are getting trapped in the grip of drugs. Every kind of person gets trapped in the trap of drugs,” he said.
SP Gandhi highlighted the proactive measures taken by the police, including targeted operations and grassroots-level initiatives led by dedicated constables and officers.
“The recent bust is part of a broader strategy by the Shimla Police to target drug syndicates using an integrated intelligence network. Our Social Integrated Intelligence Network System which we have developed in Shimla has helped us a lot. It is a network system which has Mahila Mandal, school and college-going children who have been effectively edited from drug pending cases and have now come out,” explained Gandhi.
He also highlighted that this system also involves collaboration with the Task Force, local business owners, and other stakeholders, enabling the police to maintain a close watch on suspicious activities
Sanjeev Kumar Gandhi, further pointed out that in addition to arrests, the Shimla Police have focused on dismantling the financial structure that supports these illegal operations.
