Proclaimed offender in narco-terror financing case surrenders in J&K court

Srinagar, Dec 20 (PTI) A proclaimed offender in a narco-terror financing case surrendered before a local court on Wednesday, officials said.

Javed Ahmad Thakkar alias Raja Thakkar, a resident of Jammu and Kashmir’s Rajouri district, surrendered before the designated UAPA court, the officials said.
