Overview
- Police executed the attachment on Saturday following a local court order, citing Section 107 of the Bharatiya Nagarik Suraksha Sanhita.
- The seized assets include about 15,200 square metres of land near the Yamuna Expressway valued at roughly Rs 33.03 crore and a vehicle worth Rs 16 lakh.
- Two men, Mohammad Sharib Tasneem and Saad Rahman, were previously booked in 2022 under IPC sections 420, 447, 467, 468, 471 and 504, as well as provisions of the IT Act and the Prevention of Damage to Public Property Act.
- Police allege the pair marketed plots without Yamuna Development Authority approval and took investors’ money without handing over possession.
- Authorities described the move as part of a Tappal-area drive against land mafias, with the SP (Rural) calling it a major BNSS action, saying they aim to auction the land and compensate affected investors, and the DGP announcing a Rs 50,000 reward for the team.
