"Constables had accompanied Mobin to the hospital. After he was taken to the lab for a blood test, the constables were asked to wait outside. However, he managed to sneak out of the room," said an officer from JJ Marg police station. "The cops realised after some time that Mobin was missing. When they couldn't find him in the hospital premises, they reported the matter to JJ Marg police station," the officer added.

A senior police officer said, "We have registered a case against Mobin under section 224 (resistance or obstruction by a person to his lawful apprehension) of IPC. A team has been formed to nab him."
