The accused has been identified as Shareef, who is also a Dargah devotee, but not associated with any group. It is learnt that he destroyed the headstones placed over the graves of Late UT Fareed and Naseema Fareed, the parents of local Mr Khader, after juma Namaz.

Police sources said that Shareef himself surrendered to the police and confessed to the crime hours after desecrating the graves. Sources said that he was let off by police with a warning as Mr Khader's family did not file any complaint.

The desecration took place a day after two groups of people clashed on the Dargah premises over the appointment to the post of president of managing committee of mosque and Dargah.

A new committee was constituted duly electing Haji Abdul Rashid as president of the dargah committee on Tuesday. However, the name of Bukhari was announced by another group for the post the same evening, leading to a tiff within the community.

The matter got settled with police intervention giving recognition to the duly elected committee. Again the issue erupted on Thursday evening with supporters of both groups engaging in clashes.

Meanwhile, the newly elected president has condemned the desecration of the graves of the parents of Mr Khader. He said that Late UT Fareed, had greatly contributed towards the development of Dargah during his tenure as the MLA.
