In a dramatic turn of events four persons allegedly linked to the banned Popular Front of India (PFI) were arrested by Delhi Police under the stringent Unlawful Activities (Prevention) Act, hours after getting bail from Special Magistrate at Amar Colony Police Station.
A senior police officer confirmed that four members of the outlawed outfit have been arrested in a case registered against them under the UAPA at Shaheen Bagh police station of southeast district of Delhi Police.
Six persons (Mohammad Jabir , Sameer Khan, Md Shoaib, Habib Asgar Jamali, Abdul Rabb and Abdul Waris ) who were booked under sections 107, 151 CrPC on 27th September were produced before Special Magistrate at Amar Colony Police Station on Monday at 4.pm. All six were granted bail and taken back to Tihar Jail to complete the formalities for release. When Mohammad Jabir and Sameer Khan came out of the gate their family car picked them up. Unfortunately Md Shoaib, Habib Asgar Jamali, Abdul Rabb and Abdul Waris were not so lucky. Soon after a Delhi Police vehicle offered them a ride and took away to an unknown location. Later on it was revealed that all four were re-arrested and booked under UAPA.
