Kerala Police Hand Over Mami Missing Case to Crime Branch to Avoid CBI Probe
Real Estate News:THIRUVANANTHAPURAM In a bid to avoid a CBI investigation, the Kerala police have handed over the missing case of Mohammad Attur, a prominent real estate businessman from Kozhikode, to the Crime Branch. The move comes after Malappuram SP S Sasidharan recommended the DGP to hand over the investigation to the CBI.

The Kerala High Court is set to consider a petition filed by Mami's wife Rukhsana seeking a CBI probe on October 1. Mami's daughter, Adeeba, has alleged that ADGP MR Ajithkumar interfered with the investigation.

Mohammad Attur (Mami), a prominent real estate businessman, went missing on August 22, 2023, after leaving his office at Arayidathupalam. Despite investigations by the Nadakkavu CI and Kozhikode City Police Commissioner, the police concluded that Mami had gone into hiding.

Mami had travelled to Hyderabad and Mumbai for business-related work. Although the investigation team went to these cities, they were not able to find any information about Mami. The family is alleging that the real estate mafia is behind Mami's disappearance.

Probe sabotaged?

1. Despite investigating the crores of transactions made by Mami, the police were unable to uncover any leads. They were also unable to determine if Mami had any connections to gold smuggling, despite his investments in real estate and business ventures.

2. Earlier, ADGP MR Ajith Kumar replaced the first investigation team with a new one soon after Mami's relatives met the Chief Minister demanding a CBI probe. However, all the members of the first team were included in the new team as well, except the Malappuram SP, who was in charge of supervision.

3. The police have questioned several people, including friends, real estate brokers, and businessmen. Nevertheless, the police have been unable to verify the allegation that the leader of a Quotation gang in Kozhikode was given Rs 10 lakh to commit murder.

4. As requested by the DGP, Google headquarters in the US had handed over the data from Mami's mobile phone. The data included Tower Dump and Google Data. The data from three towers in Kozhikode revealed the information of the persons suspected of abducting him. However, the investigation did not make any progress.

PV Anwar MLA had earlier raised suspicions that Mami was murdered.
