Karachi: Notorious drug dealer Anmol alias “Pinky,” allegedly involved in cocaine trafficking, was presented before the Judicial Magistrate’s court in Karachi on Tuesday in connection with multiple criminal cases, ARY News reported.
According to the investigation officer, the accused is facing several charges, including possession of narcotics, illegal weapons, and involvement in an attempted murder case linked to drug-related activities.
Police informed the court that separate cases against the accused have been registered at Baghdadi and Garden police stations in Karachi.

The court also directed the investigation officer to submit charge sheets in all pending cases within 14 days.
