ISLAMABAD: Minister of State for Interior Shehryar Afridi said on Sunday that some criminally-minded persons were trying to damage his repute by taking pictures with him during the campaign against use of drugs and putting the same on media.
“Being a political worker, I could not stop someone from taking a picture with me and I had no connection with those misusing it,” he added The Anti-Narcotics Force (ANF) rejected the news describing connection of State Minister for Interior Shehryar Khan Afridi with a person held from Islamabad in a case for possessing cocaine.

The citizens may lodge their complaints regarding narcotics at the ANF helpline 1415, the source maintained.
