Siwan District Magistrate Santosh Kumar Mal on Wednesday issued an arrest warrant against controversial Rashtriya Janata Dal member of Parliament Mohammed Shahabuddin for alleged criminal activities post-February 18, 2005.
Mal ordered Siwan Superintendent of Police Ratan Sanjay to arrest Shahabuddin and produce him in his court on or before July 1.
Mal had earlier reserved his order on his predecessor C K Anil's order of May 16 to book Shahabuddin under the Crime Control Act for his criminal activities post-February 18, which was the day Anil had ordered Shahabuddin's externment from Siwan for six months.
Mal gave the instruction to book Shahabuddin in view of the MP's failure to appear before his court despite summons.
