According to the sources, Mohammad has been married thrice and worked as a blacksmith along with his father. Despite being out of work for many years, the duo still had money coming in.
The first marriage reportedly took place in Morna village of Noida. Details of his second marriage aren’t known yet and he went by the name Sameer Sharma and married a girl from the neighbouring village in his third marriage.
On October 3, the Ghaziabad police arrested a man named Sameer Sharma with a pistol and a knife from a temple in Mussoorie, on the allegation that he was there with the intent to kill Mahamandaleshwar Swami Prabodhanand Giri Maharaj, the national president of the Hindu Raksha Sena.
It was revealed during interrogation that Sameer Sharma was none other than Mohammad of Greater Noida.
