He is accused of leading thugs to both verbally and physically assaulted the constituency chairman, the treasurer and threatened other party functionaries who were supervising the ward elections by carrying out their lawful duty as executives.

He unlawfully disrupted a lawful assembly of party members, a conduct that amounts to a disturbance of lawful assembly contrary to section 204 of the Criminal Offences Act, 1960, Act 29.

The suspended Prince Zakria has additionally been directed to hand over any party document in his possession including the forged membership card.
