The said house is located in Behnana Tola and the commercial building is in Chak Niratul area under Chakia locality. Guddu Muslim, also a henchman of Atiq Ahmad, is one of the assailants involved in the broad daylight murders of lawyer Umesh Pal and his two police guards in Sulem Sarai area in Dhoomanganj here on February 24.

He can be seen hurling crude bombs in the CCTV footage of the incident that went viral on social media. He is carrying a reward of 5 lakh on his arrest.
