TANDO ALLAHYAR: Police intensified operations against drug dealers and other criminal elements across Tando Allahyar district under a zero-tolerance policy, while citizens urged authorities to monitor “black sheep” within the force to ensure the campaign reached its logical conclusion.
The crackdown was carried out on the directives of Hyderabad Range Deputy Inspector General of Police Tariq Razak Khan Dharejo under the supervision of SSP Tando Allahyar Syed Saleem Shah.
Police said operations against drug trafficking, prostitution and other crimes were continuing without discrimination across the district. During raids conducted in different areas, police arrested 10 suspects and registered eight cases.
According to police figures, officers recovered 2,520 grams of hashish, 605 litres of locally brewed liquor, 345 bottles of alcohol, 160 packets of gutka and crystal methamphetamine from the arrested suspects.
SHO Nasarpur arrested an accused identified as Ali Nawaz, son of Amin, and recovered 2,520 grams of hashish from his possession. A case was registered under Crime No 43/2026.
SHO Umar Sand arrested two suspects, Vishnu son of Ramji and Setal son of Lakho, and recovered 600 litres of locally brewed liquor. A case was registered under Crime No 46/2026.

SSP Syed Saleem Shah said all available resources were being used to bring those involved in drug trafficking and other crimes within the reach of the law.
Citizens praised the ongoing crackdown but said stricter action should have been taken earlier, arguing that many people in the district had fallen victim to drug addiction due to the unchecked spread of narcotics.
They also urged the SSP to keep a close watch on corrupt elements within the police force so the anti-drug operation could achieve lasting results.
