Shopping complex of SP leader accused of raping  minor razed

Friday, 23 August 2024 | PNS | Lucknow

The Uttar Pradesh government led by Yogi Adityanath, on Thursday, demolished the shopping complex of Ayodhya rape accused Moeed Khan, who is a Samajwadi Party leader, days after demolishing his bakery.

Reports said that by Thursday night, half of the property of the accused will be demolished. Earlier, an investigation by the tehsil administration revealed that the bakery of the accused was situated on pond land, leading to the demolition of its manufacturing unit.

Ayodhya Development Authority Secretary Satyendra Singh stated that the building was constructed illegally by encroaching on pond land and chak road land. Despite multiple notices issued by the development authority, the property owners did not submit the required map or show any interest in complying with the notice. This illegal portion included the bank branch as well as other shops and establishments, which have been vacated following a notice.

Subsequently, the demolition order was issued in June, and the action has now been initiated. The sub-divisional magistrate is conducting further investigations, and any additional illegal properties discovered will also face action.

Ayodhya Circle Officer Ashutosh Mishra reported that comprehensive security measures were implemented. The surrounding area was evacuated and a substantial police force was present at the site. Traffic was diverted as needed to ensure smooth operations.

Security of the Ayodhya gang-rape victim has been increased. She has now been shifted to home in Bhadarsa town along with her family after undergoing medical termination of her pregnancy in King George’s Medical University in Lucknow. The incident took place in the Pura Kalandar police station area of Ayodhya, where Moeed Khan, a resident of the same area, allegedly raped the minor girl and made a video of the act. After making the video, Moeed blackmailed the girl and raped her multiple times. The case came to light when the minor girl became two-month pregnant. After discovering the pregnancy, the victim’s family filed a complaint with the police.
