Haridwar police have moved closer to property-attachment proceedings against Bobby, an accused who has been absconding in the shooting of hotelier Arun in the Khadkhadi area of north Haridwar.
Acting on a court order, a Nagar Kotwali police team travelled to Kapurthala in Punjab. Officers pasted an attachment notice at Bobby’s home and conducted a public announcement in the village.
The action follows the failure to locate Bobby despite several police searches at suspected hideouts. Police said he has remained outside their custody since the case was registered.
What police said about the shooting
According to police, motorcycle-borne assailants shot Arun on 2 June 2025 in Khadkhadi. Arun is a resident of Sampla in Rohtak, Haryana, and had been living in Haridwar while operating a hotel on lease.
Police registered a case after the incident and began efforts to identify and arrest those involved. Several accused people were arrested, and police said the case was subsequently solved.
Bobby, identified as a resident of Mohalla Prempura under City Phagwara police station in Punjab’s Kapurthala district, remains outside police custody, according to the report.
Next step in the case
Police said they made repeated attempts to find Bobby at possible locations but received no information about his whereabouts. After those efforts did not produce a result, investigators obtained a court order for the attachment process.
Nagar Kotwali in-charge Kundan Singh Rana said the team was sent to Punjab in compliance with the court’s direction. The notice was pasted at the accused’s house, while the public announcement informed residents about the legal action.
If Bobby does not surrender before the court within the prescribed period, police will proceed with attachment of his property as directed by the court. The supplied report does not state the length of that period or provide a separate date for the next hearing.
The development marks an escalation from attempts to locate the accused to a formal court-backed step involving his property. The shooting case itself concerns the alleged attack on Arun, while the attachment action relates to Bobby’s continued absence from the legal process.
Conclusion
Police have pasted a court-ordered attachment notice at Bobby’s home in Kapurthala and announced it publicly. If he does not surrender within the prescribed period, property-attachment proceedings may follow under the court’s order.
