11 Landlords Booked For Not Providing Tenant Details In Samba

JAMMU: Eleven cases have been registered against land and house owners in Jammu and Kashmir’s Samba district for allegedly failing to provide details of their tenants to the local police, an official spokesperson said.

The verification process was initiated after several instances of anti-national elements staying in residential areas in the guise of tenants and domestic help came to the fore in Jammu.

During this drive, 11 cases were registered at Samba, Vijaypur and Rajpura police stations sections of the Bharatiya Nyaya Sanhita (BNS), he added.

It is pertinent to mention that Samba district magistrate has already issued the orders for the owners to get the police verification of the tenants done.

Police appeal to the residents to come forward and provide the complete details of their tenants and domestic helpers to their nearest police station and get the verification done timely. (PTI)
