A team of police personnel arrested him from the premises of the Special Additional Sessions Court (Marad Cases), at Eranhipalam here.
A long pending warrant had been issued against him by the Vadakara First Class Magistrate Court in 1999.
The police had registered a case against Rafeeque in connection with a vehicle accident in 1994.
