On the report of Saharanpur Police, the Regional Passport Office Ghaziabad has seized the passport of Haji Iqbal.

The passport of Haji Iqbal has been seized on the basis of police reports in two cases registered against the former Saharanpur mining mafia and his family at Behat police station and Mirzapur (Mirzapur), while notices have been issued for confiscation of the passports of his wife, younger brother former MLC Mehmood Ali and sons.

On the report of Saharanpur Police, the Regional Passport Office Ghaziabad has seized the passport of Haji Iqbal. Notices have been issued to confiscate the passports of his wife Farida Begum, younger brother Mehmood Ali and sons Afzal, Alishan, and Wajid Ali.
