“The process of demolition of illegally constructed two farmhouses, a warehouse, a madarsa, a factory, and a bungalow on government land has been started. The property is worth ₹50 crore,” Bhopal collector Kaushlendra Vikram Singh said.

The crime branch arrested Yasin from an ice cream parlour on July 21 and seized drugs and a pistol. His uncle, Shahwar Ahmed, was arrested from a house in Hathaikheda.

“Yasin Ahmed and his uncle used to supply drugs in the clubs of Bhopal under the pretext of weight management medicines. The accused used to shoot obscene videos of women and threaten them for supplying drugs. The investigation is going on in the matter, and more revelations will be made,” additional commissioner of police at crime branch of Bhopal Shailendra Chauhan said.

So far, six cases have been registered against them under rape, drug supply, fraud, conspiracy, and assault charges. The name of another uncle of Yasin, Shariq Ahmed, also surfaced during the investigation, police said.

Shariq, who claimed to be a Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) leader, posted a video of the bulldozer action on social media. The video shows him with folded hands, demanding the police and administration conduct a fair investigation into the allegations against him. “My family served the BJP for 40 years. But people from the party itself are conspiring against me. I am being framed, and my family is innocent,” Shariq said.

During the demolition, police seized hard disks and computers from the farmhouse for investigation into the sexual assault case registered against them. Earlier, the crime branch had also seized a MacBook belonging to Yasin, in which many obscene photos, videos, and chats with women were found.

ABOUT THE AUTHOR
Shruti Tomar
I have spent over a decade chronicling Madhya Pradesh’s political and social landscape, covering politics, investigative journalism, crime, human interest, and government policy, blending sharp insight with ground‑level depth. I have closely tracked three assembly elections, three Lok Sabha elections, leadership transitions in MP while exposing governance lapses, tender irregularities, and flawed policy rollouts. My reports have revealed gaps in the Cheetah project, irregularities in medical education, rigging in recruitment exams, and loopholes in policy implementation. In crime reporting, I have moved beyond FIRs to map systemic patterns — from organised crime networks and gender‑based violence to custodial accountability — balancing urgency with sensitivity. My journalism is defined by a commitment to human interest. I have profiled the marginalised Bancchda community, documented atrocities against tribal groups, and highlighted efforts to preserve their culture through heritage liquor and revival of spiritual practices. I have reported on farmers struggling with failed MSP promises, giving voice to those often reduced to statistics in policy files. Passionate about field reporting, I have reported on rampant sand mining in Chambal and Narmada, pharmaceutical companies supplying medicines under altered names, the dire condition of schools and colleges, the plight of commercial sex workers, and skewed sex ratios in specific districts. Beyond deadlines, and as HT’s state correspondent and assistant editor in Madhya Pradesh, I engage with ministers, farmers, students, and activists, believing the best policy stories begin with a single human voice. A postgraduate in Journalism and Mass Communication, I also hold a diploma in sports journalism.Read More
