Norwich man accused of selling heroin multiple times in the area

NORWICH – A man sits in the Chenango County Correctional Facility after authorities allege the man sold heroin on multiple occasions in the area.
Fitim R. Latifi, 32, of 16 Sheldon Street in the City of Norwich was arrested on August 28, 2015. Latifi was picked up by the Chenango County Sheriff's Office for an active arrest warrant that was issued by the Chenango County Court. The warrant was issued by the court following a sealed indictment presented to the grand jury on August 28, 2015.
Latifi had been under investigation for the sale of heroin in the Norwich area for sometime before being picked up on the arrest warrant, according to a press release that was issued.
Sheriff’s Office Narcotics Detectives, Road Patrol Deputies, and members of the Norwich Police Department located Latifi at his residence of 16 Sheldon St. in the City of Norwich.
Latifi was indicted on four counts of criminal sale of a controlled substance in the third degree, all class B felonies.
It is alleged that Latifi sold heroin within the Norwich area on at least four separate occasions. He was arraigned in the City of Norwich Court and remanded to the Chenango County Correctional Facility in lieu of $25,000 cash bail.
Based on The Evening Sun archives, Latifi has a criminal history in the area. In a prior Evening Sun story in 2008, it was alleged that Latifi, then 25 and living in Sherburne, was remanded to the Chenango County Correctional Facility after he was arrested for stabbing a family member.
On this prior matter, Latifi was charged with first degree assault, a felony, and third degree possession of a weapon. Norwich City Police reportedly responded to the scene in the City of Norwich, where they found a family member with a stab wound to the leg.
Upon his arrest, police discovered that Latifi was already on parole and a felony parole warrant was logged with the correctional facility by the New York State parole division.
Latifi was arraigned in 2008 on this prior matter in Norwich City Court and was incarcerated with $25,000 bail.
Latifi is being currently being held on the drug charges and will appear in court at a later time.
Additional information will be provided once it becomes available.
