Hanif is facing charges under arms act as well.

Following his confession, authorities retrieved an automatic weapon from Khan Saulat Hanif’s home as he was being questioned in connection with the murder of Umesh Pal. Hanif was placed under police detention. He told the authorities that the gun was Atiq’s gift to him as a precaution.
