Kanpur (The Hawk): A local court that has designated Samajwadi Party MLA Irfan Solanki and his brother Rizwan as fugitives has issued non-bailable warrants (NBW) against them.
Irfan and Rizwan are sought after in connection with a complaint of arson, rioting, and threatening made by a woman regarding a disagreement over who is the rightful owner of a plot in Jajmau's Defence Colony.
Anand Prakash Tiwari, joint commissioner of police, stated: "The two were labelled as fugitives by the police 10 days after the incident and after filing a FIR. In court, the police had also requested NBWs be issued against the defendant. Now, additional steps will be taken."
The search for the Solanki brothers has been stepped up, and according to a police official, property attachment will start if they are not apprehended or surrender.
