LUCKNOW:

As many as 54 people, including six women, have been arrested so far in different cases registered in connection with the violence that left four people dead and several others, including cops, injured.

"The Sambhal police have already moved a local court for NBWs against 91 people, whose involvement was ascertained through pictures and videos of the violence. They have been found missing from their houses since after the incident," said inspector in-charge of Sambhal police station, Anuj Tomar.

He said these people are suspected to be living in Delhi, Uttarakhand, Haryana and Rajasthan.

One of the 54 arrested accused, Mohd Adnan, a resident of Sambhal, was nabbed from Delhi's Batla House area where he was living in a rented accommodation.

He was accused of opening fire with an illegal firearm on Sambhal SP KK Bishnoi during the violence.

The court is likely to issue the NBWs against all the 91 accused in another two days after completing legal proceedings, added Tomar.
