Rein Bazar police in Hyderabad have arrested six individuals in connection with the murder of businessman Shaik Junaid Bin Mohammad Bharmoos in the Old City. The accused taken into custody are:
Omer Bin Hamza Al Zabri (35)
Ali Bin Hamza Al Jabri (31)
Faisal Bin Habeeb Mohammed (23)
Mohammed Maqsood Ali (28)
Syed Asghar Ali (20)
Mohammed Taher (25)
Police also seized three knives allegedly used in the attack. Six other suspects—Syed Raheem Ghori Shazib, Malik Bin Javid Al Jabri, Azar, Zubair, Riyan, and Kulsum—remain at large.
According to authorities, the accused had a prior enmity with Shaik Junaid. Omer and Ali, sons of Zaffar Pahelwan, were reportedly illegally collecting commissions of Rs 1–2 lakh from property transactions and intimidating the public. Shaik Junaid intervened in one such deal, escalating tensions and leading the group to conspire against him.
On December 3 at around 10 pm, Shaik Junaid and his friend Farooq were at Chotapool, Yakutpura, when the accused attacked him with knives. Shaik Junaid sustained multiple stab injuries and died on the spot, police confirmed.
The Rein Bazar police and DCP South Zone Kiran Khare stated that investigations are ongoing to apprehend the remaining six absconding suspects.
