MEERUT: Clueless about an unidentified instigator of November 2024 violence, Sambhal Police have now put up his posters at many places in the district.

The posters with the photograph say anyone who helps identify this man will be given a cash reward and their identity will also be kept confidential.

Confirming it, Sambhal SP Krishna Kumar Bishnoi said on November 24 morning, when the Jama Masjid survey was underway, a crowd started gathering there.

At that time, the accused, wearing spectacles, a cap, and bearing a beard, raised religious slogans and gestured to some people from behind to come forward. He then instigated an attack on the police, the cop added.

"The video of the accused emerged right after the violence, but the team has not yet been able to determine who he was or where he came from. Hence, posters have been put up in public places," the SP said.
