ED in Jammu has filed a prosecution complaint under the PMLA against several individuals involved in a narco-terrorism operation that funded by Hizbul Mujahideen

Enforcement Directorate (ED) in Jammu has filed a prosecution complaint under the Prevention of Money Laundering Act (PMLA) against several individuals involved in a narco-terrorism operation that allegedly funded subversive activities of the Hizbul Mujahideen. The complaint names Arshad Ahmed Allaie, Fayaz Ahmed Dar, Fayaz Ahmed Digoo, Abdul Hamid Allaie, and Laddi Ram, among others.According to the ED, the accused smuggled drugs into India from Pakistan, distributing them across Jammu & Kashmir and Punjab. The proceeds from these drug sales, amounting to crores of rupees, were funneled into terrorist activities through a series of transactions disguised under legitimate businesses, including the sale of second-hand cars. The money was routed through various bank accounts, camouflaging its illicit origins.The Jammu PMLA court has taken cognizance of the case, and several accused individuals are currently in judicial custody, including the masterminds behind the scheme. This operation highlights the deep connections between drug smuggling, money laundering, and terrorism in the region.
