Two FIRs against his aides Hamid Ali & Kausar Imam Siddique & a 3rd for obstructing raid party of ACB in discharge of govt work.
ACB informed the Rouse Avenue Court during the hearing on the matter that their ACP was attacked by Amanatullah Khan’s relatives and supporters at the time of the raid.
The court was also shown photographic and video evidence of the attack. An FIR related to this incident has been lodged at Jamia Nagar Police Station in Delhi. AAP MLA’s lawyer Rahul Mehra argued that Amanatullah Khan was not present there at the time of the attack so he is not responsible for it.
In the video, Amanatullah’s supporters can be clearly seen manhandling and intimidating the ACB official who had gone there to conduct the raid.
