After this, Atique thrashed him in the jail and asked him to sign on plain paper. On refusing, Atique, his sons Umar and Gufran, Farooq, Ghulam and Irfan beat him with pistol-rods and straps. After this, by forcibly getting signatures on the stamp paper, the property worth 45 crores was got in his name.
