Atiq Ahmed Murder Case

The house belonging to slain gangster-turned-politician Atiq Ahmed's sister Ayesh Noori and her husband Akhlaq, co-accused in lawyer Umesh Pal's murder, here has been attached by the police, an official said on Monday.

A reward-carrying close aide of slain mafia don Atiq Ahmed was arrested by the Prayagraj Police here after a gunfire encounter on Wednesday night.

In the Umesh Pal murder case, police got a nod to attach the properties of six accused, who are on the run, including dead gangster-turned-politician Atiq Ahmed's wife Shaista Parveen.

Gangster Atiq Ahmed's minor sons Ahzam and Aban were released from a juvenile home in Rajrooppur and handed over to their aunt Parveen Ahmed Qureshi here on Monday.

The lawyer of slain gangster Atiq Ahmed was today arrested by the Uttar Pradesh police in connection with the killing of Umesh Pal, a key witness in the killing of former BSP legislator Raju Pal.

Two men in white headscarves - similar to the ones worn by murdered UP gangster Atiq Ahmed and his brother Ashraf - were 'shot dead' while they were talking to 'reporters' in Uttar Pradesh's Prayagraj today.

The murders of Atiq Ahmed and his brother Ashraf Ahmed raised critical questions regarding the cops' security arrangements for the high-profile prisoners and their response to the shooting.

A day after Umesh Pal murder case accused Asad, who fell to police bullets, was buried at the Kasari Masari graveyard here, two more graves were dug on Sunday for his father - gangster-politician Atiq Ahmad - and uncle Asraf.

Mafia-turned-politician Atiq Ahmed's killing is perhaps Uttar Pradesh's most shocking incident in years given the clout he enjoyed, particularly in eastern Uttar Pradesh, even from prison.
