The arrest of alleged drug dealer Anmol alias Pinky has sparked fresh controversy after a new audio message surfaced and a family claimed police wrongly entered their address in the FIR.
A judicial magistrate in Karachi South has approved Pinky’s three-day physical remand, while police say investigations and raids against her alleged accomplices are continuing.
A local court in Karachi granted three-day physical remand of alleged drug dealer Anmol alias Pinky on the request of DIG South Asad Raza.
Police had approached the higher court after a subordinate court earlier sent Pinky to jail instead of granting police remand. Following the court’s latest order, a police team was sent to take the accused from jail.
Inquiry officer changed in Pinky case
The investigation into Anmol alias Pinky is ongoing, while discussions about her alleged drug network and activities continue in Karachi.
An inquiry earlier given to the SSP South has now been cancelled. DIG West Irfan Baloch has been nominated as the new inquiry officer in the case.
Another audio message about successor
Another audio message allegedly linked to Pinky has surfaced, in which she appears to inform clients about a successor before her arrest.
In the audio message, Pinky allegedly says that if anything happens to her, the work will continue on the same number. She also says a man will remain in contact with clients through the same number.
In the audio, Pinky allegedly says the person who will take over the work after her is her friend. She further says her friend will inform clients about all matters related to her. However, the accused did not reveal the name of that friend in the audio message.
Police say investigations are being conducted into the viral audio message. Raids are also underway to arrest other alleged accomplices of the accused.
Arrest and cases registered
According to police, Anmol alias Pinky was arrested during an operation at Bilal Arcade near Garden.
Two cases were registered against her at Garden Police Station, including charges under the Sindh Narcotics Act and illegal possession of weapons.
According to the FIR, police recovered 1,240 grams of ready-made cocaine from the accused. Police also claimed that 15 capsules containing 300 grams of cocaine were seized, along with various chemicals allegedly used in drug preparation and boxes used for packing narcotics.
Officials said illegal weapons were also recovered during the operation, and a separate case was registered over the weapons recovery.
Family challenges FIR address
Pinky’s arrest has also created controversy after a family came forward claiming that police entered the wrong address in the FIR.
The family said they have been living in the flat for the last eight years and do not know Anmol alias Pinky. They claimed they have no connection with the accused.
Police said Anmol alias Pinky was highly wanted in 10 cases. Her previous criminal record has also come to light, with four cases reportedly passed and six cases registered at Darakhshan Police Station.
Police say efforts are underway to trace and arrest other alleged accomplices linked to the accused.
