Bareilly, 24

Oct (HS): Dr. Nafees, accused in the Bareilly riots, is in jail. Meanwhile,

another report has been filed against him, naming his wife as an accused. This

case relates to Waqf property. Another case was filed at the Kotwali police

station against Dr. Nafees, a close associate of Maulana Tauqeer Raza Khan,

accused of instigating the riots in Bareilly. Dr. Nafees' wife, Farhat Begum,

is also an accused in the case. This action was taken based on a petition filed

by Mohammad Qamar Akhtar, a resident of Peerbahoda and a resident of Mohalla

414 Sahukara, near Rajo Wali Masjid. The case relates to the creation of a fake

gift deed and the subsequent occupation of Waqf property. Kotwali police

station in-charge Amit Kumar Pandey stated that Maulana Tauqeer, his party's

general secretary and spokesperson, Dr. Nafees, and other accused are in jail

in connection with the September 26 riots in the city. Mohammad Qamar Akhtar

had submitted a petition to the SSP. He told the SSP that his grandmother,

Nanho Kujdi, owned a 95-square-yard house in Waqf No. 26-A in Bamnpuri, with

five shops below it.

His distant

grandmother used to run a vegetable shop for a living. His grandfather Sabir

Hussain's vegetable shop was in the Qutubkhana vegetable market. Because of

this, Nanho used to visit his grandfather's shop. Nanho considered his

grandfather Sabir Hussain as his brother. Before his death, Nanho had

bequeathed the property with Waqf number 26-A to his grandfather Sabir Hussain

and his three sons, Shakir Hussain, Zakir Hussain, and Nasir Hussain.

Fraudulently

prepared fake documents: Mohammad Qamar Akhtar said that his father, Shakir Hussain,

a resident of Kangi Tola, used to visit the eyeglasses shop of Dr. Nafees

located in Qutubkhana. Dr. Nafees, taking his father into confidence, took the

property with Waqf number 26-A on lease in the name of his wife Farhat Begum

for 30 years in the year 1996. When his father died in the year 2022, Dr.

Nafees and his wife Farhat Begum fraudulently prepared fake documents and got a

gift deed of the property with Waqf number 26-A made in the name of their two

sons, Mohammad Nauman Khan and Mohammad Farhan Khan.

They all

still occupy that property. Mohammad Qamar Akhtar has demanded that the Waqf

No. 26-A property be returned to him and that legal action be taken against the

culprits. Kotwali Police Station Officer Amit Kumar Pandey on Friday stated

that a case has been registered and an investigation has been initiated. Dr.

Nafees is already in jail.
