A local court in Karachi on Wednesday approved a three-day physical remand of a high-profile woman “drug peddler”, Anmol alias Pinky, in a case registered by Karachi South Police.

The police approached the court a day after a request for her physical remand was rejected. The suspect had earlier been sent to jail on judicial remand.

The investigating officer had cited three main grounds in the remand report: identifying the source of cocaine supply, determining her financial resources, and conducting a Criminal Record Office (CRO) check.

During Wednesday’s hearing, the investigating officer once again sought physical remand in the case registered against Pinky. The DIG South said that a fresh plea for physical remand was filed before the court, adding that the details of previous cases against Anmol alias Pinky have also been collected.

Pinky, who was arrested from Karachi’s Garden area, was a highly wanted suspect and had been absconding in at least 10 different cases, according to police.

Police said weapons, cocaine, and other drugs worth around Rs1.5 million were recovered from her custody, adding that she was allegedly running a drug supply network in the port city.
