MP High Court halts demolition of Mhow building linked to Al-Falah group chairperson
The Madhya Pradesh High Court on Friday put a temporary halt on the demolition of a home in Mhow linked to Al-Falah Group chairperson Jawad Ahmad Siddiqui, granting a 15-day interim stay, The Indian Express reported.
Siddiqui is under investigation in the probe examining alleged links between Al-Falah Medical College and the November 10 blast near Delhi's Red Fort.
The order came after Abdul Majid, the current owner of the property, challenged a notice from the Mhow Cantonment Board that asked him to remove alleged illegal construction within three days, Live Law reported.
Justice Pranay Verma noted that the earlier notices related to the property were issued in 1996-'97. He said that if authorities were acting nearly 30 years later, the petitioner should have been given a proper opportunity to be heard, The Indian Express reported.
The High Court's stay prevents the Cantonment Board from carrying out any demolition or structural action at the site until the matter returns to court.
According to the petition, the house originally belonged to Siddiqui's father, Hammad Ahmad, and later passed to Siddiqui, who gifted it to Majid in 2021, Live Law reported.
Majid has argued that no action was taken for 29 years and that the construction does not obstruct traffic or encroach on the road, as claimed in the notice.
Siddiqui was arrested on Tuesday by the Enforcement Directorate in a money-laundering case linked to alleged fraudulent accreditation claims and financial irregularities at Al-Falah group's educational institutions.
The Al-Falah Medical College in Faridabad, Haryana has been under scrutiny in the investigation linked to the November 10 Delhi blast.
The blast near the Red Fort metro station had left 13 persons dead. The Union government has described it as a “terrorist incident”.
The Delhi Police has alleged that the key suspects, including faculty member Umar Un Nabi, who was allegedly driving the car that exploded, used a room on campus to plan logistics for transporting ammonium nitrate for multiple blasts in the National Capital Region. The vehicle used in the blast had been parked inside the campus for nearly 20 days, the police said.
