Prayagraj (Uttar Pradesh), May 1 (). Guddu Muslim, accused of killing lawyer Umesh Pal and his two police guards on February 24, has been evading the police for two months.
During the incident, Guddu was caught on camera hurling a crude bomb at Umesh Pal. The CCTV footage of him throwing the bomb after the attack went viral on social media.
The officers probing the case now say that they are changing their strategy to arrest Guddu Muslim.
A senior police officer claimed that, sources have told us that Guddu Muslim is adept at changing his appearance and disguising himself. We have prepared sketches of him in various disguises, with or without beard and moustache. Guddu may have changed his name as well and may be living at his hideout with a Hindu identity. He may also be living as a beggar outside the temple, we are probing all possibilities.
Police officials said that after killing Umesh Pal, Guddu Muslim had fled to Jhansi and then to Meerut. Police claimed that Guddu moved to Delhi after staying at the house of Ayesha Noori, sister of gangster-politician Atiq Ahmed.
Before the police and STF team could trace his location, Guddu left Delhi for Ajmer. Officials said that his location was also traced in Madhya Pradesh, Odisha and Chhattisgarh.
