Falaknuma Police Nab Rowdy Sheeter Involved in Kidnapping and Assault Case in Hyderabad

Hyderabad: The Falaknuma Police have arrested a notorious rowdy sheeter involved in a kidnapping case that took place on October 20 near Gudi Ka Dawakhana in Nawab Saheb Kunta, Hyderabad. The accused, identified as Mohd Hussain Younus alias Younus Rider (26), and his associate Mohd Asghar Biyan Bani alias Ajju (25), were apprehended, while another suspect, Liyaqath, remains absconding.

According to the police, the incident occurred when the victim, Mohd Raheem, a 23-year-old cab driver, and his friend Mohd Sharooq, a 21-year-old chicken trader, were targeted by the accused. The brother of Sharooq had reportedly approached the accused Younus to counsel Sharooq to focus on work instead of loitering on the streets. However, the accused took advantage of the situation.

The police said the accused thrashed Raheem and threatened him with a sharp weapon, warning him not to report the matter.
