KATHUA, Feb 24: Kathua police on Tuesday has attached a land belonging to Pakistan based terror handler in Lohai Malhar area of the district falling under the jurisdiction of Police Station Billawar.
The property was attached on the directives of 3rd Additional Session Court Jammu by the Kathua police under the overall supervision of SSP Kathua, Mohita Sharma.
A police spokesperson said the attachment has been effected in connection with FIR No. 142/2024 registered at Police Station Billawar under Sections 61(1)/147/BNS, 13/16/18/23/38/ 39/UAPA Act, 2/3 EIMCO Act . The attached property comprises 7.5 Marla in Khewat No.155/152, of land, falling under Khasra No. 995/726 situated in tehsil Lohai Malhar District Kathua, he said.
The spokesperson said attached property belongs to Swar Din @Swaru, son of Ami Din of Bhatodi tehsil Lohai Malhar , district Kathua , who is presently operating as a Pakistan-based terror handler. The accused had earlier ex -filtrated to Pakistan/PoJK and has since been actively involved in activities inimical to the security and sovereignty of the nation.
Owing to his continued evasion of the legal process, the accused was declared a proclaimed offender by the Court, he said. Despite sustained efforts by Kathua police to secure his arrest, he remained beyond the reach of law, compelling the Court to order attachment of his immovable property, he added.
The spokesperson said acting upon these directions, the attachment was executed by SHO, PS Billawar Inspector, Zaheer Mushtaq under the guidance of SP Operations, Upper Kathua, Aumir Iqbal and SDPO Billawar, Neeraj Padyar , in close coordination with the Revenue Department, after following all due legal procedures, verification, and documentation.
He said this action is part of broader and sustained strategy to dismantle the financial and logistical support structure of terror network and to ensure that individuals involved in terrorism and anti national activities are deprived of resources.
