The Narcotics Investigation Unit (NIU) has been established with the primary aim of efficiently addressing drug-related offences within the federal capital. <\/span><\/p>\n

This unit is dedicated solely to conducting thorough investigations pertaining to drug-related cases and ensuring the strict enforcement of the Narcotics Act of 1997. All NIU investigation officers will carry out their duties under the supervision of their respective district police officers.<\/span><\/p>\n

The zonal SDPOs will provide oversight, offering guidance in the investigation process and providing verification as an integral aspect of the investigative procedure.<\/span><\/p>\n

ICCPO Dr Akbar Nasir Khan emphasised that the Narcotics Investigation Unit (NIU) will play a pivotal role in eradicating drugs and securing a safer future for our youth. He directed all senior police officers to expedite actions against drug peddlers. These criminals pose a significant threat to the peace and security of our society, particularly the younger generation, and their activities will not be tolerated in any manner, he added.<\/p>\n
