In a significant move to curb drug-related crime, the Baddi police, in coordination with the Revenue Department, dismantled a house illegally built on government land in Kishenpura by drug peddler Sarbjeet Singh, alias Cheema. The property, constructed using proceeds from drug trade, was razed following due legal process.

Baddi SP Vinod Dhiman said this action was part of a broader campaign to identify and demolish properties acquired through criminal means. Cheema, 31, a resident of Kishenpura, has been booked in four cases under the Narcotic Drugs and Psychotropic Substances Act. Investigations revealed that his family had encroached on one bigha of revenue land and built a house using money earned through illegal activities.

After a legal notice was served to Cheema’s father and the response period lapsed, the house was dismantled under police supervision. “This is a crucial step toward building a crime-free society. Such acts of using crime money to acquire properties will not be tolerated in Baddi,” Dhiman said.
