| Women in drug trade | | | The recent surge in the arrest of female drug peddlers involved in narco-terrorism in Jammu and Kashmir has raised serious concerns about the growing involvement of women in such illicit activities.
Security agencies have gathered enough evidence to prove that Pakistan is luring women into the drug trade. The infiltration of women into these criminal networks poses a grave threat to peace and stability in the region.
Pertinently, terrorism has undergone a significant transformation in recent years, adapting to new tactics and strategies to evade security forces and continue their nefarious activities. One such adaptation has been the inclusion of women in their ranks.
This development challenges traditional perceptions of women’s roles in terrorism, as it demonstrates that they are no longer limited to providing logistical support or playing passive roles. The arrest of several female drug peddlers linked to narco-terrorism indicates their active participation in drug trafficking networks, which have become integral to funding terrorist activities.
Pakistan as a country has often faced accusations of supporting terrorism. The security agencies are aware that the neigbouring country is unhappy as the peace has returned to Jammu and Kashmir.
To tackle narco-terrorism security along the borders and the Line of Control has been enhanced. Comprehensive intelligence-sharing mechanisms have been put in place to identify and apprehend those involved in the drug trade.
To tackle the issue of women’s involvement in narco-terrorism, it is imperative to focus on empowering women through education and awareness campaigns. By providing opportunities for education, skill development, and economic independence, an environment needs to be created where women are less vulnerable to recruitment by terror groups.
These initiatives can play a significant role in reducing the appeal of joining such criminal networks, as educated and empowered women are less likely to be coerced into illegal activities.
Addressing the involvement of women in narco-terrorism requires international cooperation and support. The global community must recognize the gravity of the situation and take a strong stand against Pakistan. The neighbouring country needs to be told that it has to dismantle the terror networks that facilitate the recruitment and training of women in such activities.
Sharing intelligence, implementing stricter border control measures, and providing assistance in capacity building and counter-terrorism efforts are crucial steps that can be taken collectively to combat this growing threat. |
