A court in Shamli district of Uttar Pradesh has allowed police to initiate property attachment proceedings against “absconding” Samajwadi Party MLA Nahid Hasan, who has been booked for allegedly misbehaving with a police officer and driving a vehicle without valid documents, officials said on Sunday.
During the hearing on the police application seeking permission for initiating property attachment proceedings against Hasan on Saturday, the court also asked the MLA to surrender before it, the officials said.
Police have started attachment proceeding under Section 82 (proclamation for person absconding) of the Criminal Procedure Code (CrPC), Superintendent of Police Ajay Kumar said.
On September 9, an officer had stopped Hasan for checking his SUV’s documents but the MLA allegedly misbehaved with him. Later, it was found that Hasan’s vehicle was not registered, Kumar said.
