New Delhi: The mother of missing JNU student Najeeb Ahmad on Tuesday accused the Delhi Police of being non-serious in finding her son and said she hopes to get justice from Delhi High Court.
Najeeb’s mother Fatima Nafis, also accused Delhi Police of kidnapping her son and said she will fight to the end.
“If police wanted they could have found Najeeb within two hours. Delhi Police has kidnapped Najeeb. I will fight till the end,” said Fatima Nafis.
She also appealed the Delhi Police to find Najeeb and said she will leave Delhi whenever he is found.
Najeeb, an MSc biotechnology student in JNU, went missing on Oct 15 reportedly after a fight with ABVP activists in the university campus.
Meanwhile, Delhi Police on Tuesday concluded its massive search in JNU campus without any success and will be conducting a lie-detector test on Najeeb Ahmed's roommate Mohd Qasim tomorrow as it stepped up efforts to get clues regarding the mysterious disappearance of the student since October 15.
Police have so far served notices to six people, including family members of Najeeb as well as the students with whom he was allegedly involved in a brawl at his hostel a night before he vanished, said a senior police officer.
The police, represented by senior standing counsel for Delhi government Rahul Mehra, had told Delhi High Court that four students, who are suspected of beating up Najeeb, would be put to lie-detector tests to get leads or clues about his disappearance and whereabouts.
"We have served notices to six people and after their consent, we will be carrying out the tests. Qasim gave his consent and he will be put to a lie-detector test tomorrow," said the officer.
Many of the students have gone to their homes for vacations, which is hindering investigation, he said.
Meanwhile, more than 600 Delhi Police personnel assisted by sniffer dogs concluded their search of the sprawling JNU campus but could not find any clues of the missing student.
Police team began its search around 9 AM today under the supervision of DCP (Crime Branch) G Ram Gopal Naik and finished by 3 PM. The search had begun yesterday and almost 60-70 per cent of the campus was covered while the remaining campus was scanned today.
All agencies of Delhi Police including Special Cell, Special Branch and the local police, pooling more than 600 personnel scanned the interiors and residential areas, the official said.
Najeeb has been missing since October 15 after an alleged scuffle at his hostel with ABVP students on the night of October 14. A reward of Rs 10 lakh has been announced by Delhi Police on any information about Najeeb.
The massive search was mounted following a Delhi High Court order last week directing the police to scan the entire JNU campus including hostels, classrooms as well as rooftops of the buildings with help of sniffer dogs.
After scanning the campus, the police is likely to ask JNU administration to beef up its security.
"We have observed that the forest area is quite dense and students go there even late in the night. We will request JNU authorities to increase security inside the campus for the safety of students," said an officer.
