Prayagraj Development Authority serves show-cause notice on key accused in Atala violence
PRAYAGRAJ: Prayagraj Development Authority (PDA) has served a show cause notice to Shah Alam, a key accused of the June 10 violence and arson that occurred at Atala and adjoining areas after the Friday prayers.
Alam is the All India Majlis-E-Ittehadul Muslimeen (AIMIM) district president.
The notice has been pasted on the house of Shah Alam's located at Gaus Nagar area of Kareli on Saturday.

It is worth mentioning that after since the June 10 violence, Alam is on the run. A non-bailable warrant is also out against him and four other accused in connection with the June 10 violence.
The show-cause notice dated June 14 has been served by the PDA zonal officer-2 Ajay Kumar on the name of Syed Maqsood Ahmad and informs that the construction of the house has been undertaken in violation of the set norms under the Uttar Pradesh Urban Planning and Development Ordinance, 1973.
The notice cites illegal constructions on 40x50 feet area on ground floor and first floor covering the road winding and setback areas.

However, PDA officials termed the serving of the notice as a routine affair.
“The notice has not been issued against any particular individual. We have served over 50 notices to various people for illegal constructions. These people to whom the notices have been sent should contact the PDA and get their maps passed and pay the fines which have been fixed. If a person concerned fails to act and continues to reside in an illegally constructed house, action as per norms would be taken against him/her,” said Arvind Kumar Chauhan, Vice Chairman of PDA.
It is worth mentioning that two days after the June 10 violence, PDA, backed by heavy police force had demolished house of Javed Mohammad aka Javed Pump, a businessman and an office bearer of Welfare Party of India at Ashiyana colony in Kareli on June 12.
Javed, who has been arrested and granted police remand for questioning, has been cited by the Prayagraj police as a key facilitator of the June 10 violence.
