Declared an ‘Absconder’ in an arms license case
In October 2019, Inspector Ashok Singh, the then in charge of the Mahanagar police station, registered an FIR against Abbas for obtaining a gun licence from Lucknow and buying several arms through it by illegally transferring it to Delhi. A chargesheet was filed against him and an arrest warrant was issued against him for procuring multiple arms fraudulently on a single arms licence. The court issued him various summons in this regard and on his absence from the court for a long time, he was declared an 'absconder' and a look out notice was issued against him. Abbas applied for anticipatory bail. However, the court while rejecting the application said,

"Considering serious allegations that the accused-applicant got registered his arms licence fraudulently and obtained prohibited barrels, weapons and cartridges in large numbers by taking the ground of shooting; and he has purchased weapons and cartridges, which are prohibited in shooting practice and against the Notification dated 4.8.2014 of the Government of India. And also considering the fact that accused-applicant has been avoiding the process of the court against whom proclamation has been issued, this court does not find any ground to grant anticipatory bail to the accused-applicant.”

On 18 March 2024, the Supreme Court granted him bail. [6]Bar and Bench
