LUCKNOW: Police will attach properties of a resident of Tambor in Sitapur district of UP, who’s on the run since December last year after being booked under provisions of the new ‘love jihad’ law, reports Kanwardeep Singh.
A court approval was taken to execute the proceedings under Section 83 of CrPC, which lays down that a proclaimed offender’s property can be attached after s/he’s declared an absconder. Zubrail, 22, had allegedly eloped with a 19-year-old Hindu girl, Neetu, on November 26.
Later, he married her and allegedly forced her to convert to Islam.
Zubrail’s house and land will be attached in the presence of the sub-divisional magistrate on Saturday. His van was seized on Friday, police said.
