Alleged Drug Trafficker Anmol Pinky Presented in Karachi Courts

Suspected drug kingpin Anmol, also known as “Pinky,” created a dramatic scene during a court appearance on Saturday, alleging she was abducted from Lahore 22 days ago. She claimed authorities were pressuring her for false statements involving “Banigala,” an area associated with former Prime Minister Imran Khan. During a chaotic hearing where she scuffled with policewomen, she contested the official police account of her arrest in Karachi on May 12, alleging maltreatment.

Despite her claims, magistrates granted police further physical remand in multiple cases. A judge assured her of a fair hearing and ordered a medico-legal examination by a female officer, though no visible signs of violence were noted. In a narcotics case, a six-day remand was granted, while a two-day remand was approved in a murder case where the victim allegedly died from narcotics of Pinky’s “brand.” Her lawyer argued that evidence was manipulated and that she was being framed by her ex-husband.

Responding to the case, Sindh Senior Minister Sharjeel Memon described the suspect as a “poison seller,” stating that her narcotics were causing “many precious lives to be lost.” He affirmed the government’s responsibility to dismantle such networks, acknowledging that drug trafficking has become a major business for many. Memon expressed regret that the issue of narcotics has not been taken seriously enough, calling it a worldwide problem.

As part of a broader crackdown, Memon announced a new government initiative to conduct rapid random drug tests on children in schools. This measure is intended to curb the growing drug problem among the youth.

Meanwhile, the investigation into Pinky’s alleged financial network is deepening. A second accountant linked to her has been arrested, with officials uncovering transactions worth crores of rupees across at least six bank accounts. The probe has revealed that 8.4 million rupees were transferred to foreign nationals, allegedly for the purchase of narcotics, as the Federal Investigation Agency continues its inquiry.

Suspected drug kingpin Anmol “Pinky” caused a commotion during court proceedings on Saturday, claiming she was abducted from Lahore 22 days ago and is being pressured to give false statements involving “Banigala,” an area known for the residence of former Prime Minister Imran Khan. Contesting the police’s official account of her arrest in Karachi on May 12, she alleged maltreatment in custody. Despite her claims, magistrates granted police further physical remand of the suspect in multiple cases.

During a chaotic appearance, Pinky scuffled with policewomen, removed the chador covering her face, and shouted her allegations. When questioned by a journalist, she offered a cryptic poetic response: “We are drowning, my love, and we will drag all of them down with us too.” She claimed law enforcement forced statements from her and that the cases against her were false. A judge assured her of a fair hearing, and though no visible signs of violence were noted, a medico-legal examination by a female officer was ordered.

Courts in three districts handled over 15 cases against her. A judicial magistrate in the Central district granted a six-day physical remand in a narcotics case from last year involving an arrested delivery rider. In a separate murder case, a magistrate in the South district approved a two-day remand, noting the victim allegedly died from narcotics belonging to Pinky’s “brand.” Her lawyer argued that evidence was manipulated and that she was being framed by her ex-husband. She was sent to jail on judicial remand in more than a dozen other narcotics cases.

These court proceedings unfold as investigators deepen their probe into her alleged financial network. A second accountant linked to the suspect has been arrested, with officials uncovering transactions worth crores of rupees through at least six bank accounts. The investigation has revealed that 8.4 million rupees were transferred to foreign nationals to purchase narcotics. The Federal Investigation Agency (FIA) is now assisting in tracing associated benami accounts.

The expanded investigation paints a picture of a sophisticated criminal enterprise that police believe has operated for 15 years, supplying drugs across Karachi, Lahore, and other parts of Punjab. A fifth case recently emerged against her from 2018 in Lahore, where an arrested dealer had named her as his source. Information previously provided by Pinky has already led to the arrest of 11 individuals, including six foreigners, as authorities continue to map her network.

Investigators have arrested a second accountant linked to alleged drug trafficker Anmol “Pinky” as a fifth case against her emerged in Lahore, deepening the probe into her sophisticated narcotics network. Deputy Inspector General (DIG) South Asad Raza confirmed the arrest, calling it a significant breakthrough. According to officials, investigators have uncovered transactions worth crores of rupees through six bank accounts belonging to the two accountants.

The probe has also found evidence that 8.4 million rupees were transferred to foreign nationals at different times for purchasing narcotics. Authorities have so far identified eight bank accounts allegedly used by Pinky and have engaged the Federal Investigation Agency (FIA) to trace associated benami (anonymous) accounts. These financial discoveries paint a picture of a large-scale operation that police believe has been active for 15 years, supplying drugs across Karachi, Lahore, and other parts of Punjab.

The newly surfaced case against Pinky dates back to 2018 in Lahore’s Gujjarpura area, where an arrested drug dealer claimed in an FIR to have sourced 1100 grams of narcotics from her. This adds to information previously provided by Pinky that led to the arrest of 11 individuals in Lahore, including six foreigners. Investigators continue to scrutinize over 800 contacts from her phone to map the group’s online payment and delivery systems.

Pinky remains in custody amid multiple court proceedings. A Judicial Magistrate in Karachi’s Central district has approved her physical remand until May 22. Separately, a Judicial Magistrate South extended her physical remand by two days in connection with a murder case. She has also been sent to jail on judicial remand in one case and granted it in 13 others. During court appearances, she has reportedly caused disturbances while claiming innocence and alleging police torture.
