Sambhal Officials Attach Alleged Violence Mastermind Shariq Satta’s Property After Court Order

The step follows his being declared a proclaimed offender under Section 84 after he failed to appear in court.

Overview

  • The residence in Deepa Sarai under Nakhasa police limits was attached with forces from multiple stations and a Provincial Armed Constabulary platoon under senior supervision.
  • Officials said the warrant covers his movable and immovable assets, with revenue and police teams executing the order and only the portion he owns in the multi-storey building to be attached.
  • Police say Satta remains untraceable despite raids and is suspected to be overseas, as investigators verify other properties and question associates.
  • According to police, Satta is the prime accused in the Sambhal violence cases and has 69 criminal cases, including murder and Arms Act violations, as well as alleged large-scale vehicle theft.
  • The November 24, 2024 unrest followed a court-ordered survey of the Shahi Jama Masjid and led to four deaths, dozens of injuries, property damage, restrictions on gatherings and temporary internet suspension.
