Digital Desk: The chief of the Samajwadi Party, Akhilesh Yadav, claimed on Thursday that the BJP government in Uttar Pradesh had carried out a "fake encounter" in order to assassinate the accomplice and son of gangster-turned-politician Atiq Ahmad in Jhansi. He claimed that the ruling party was attempting to divert public attention away from the state's primary issues.
Yadav claimed that the ruling BJP party did not trust the judicial system and was enforcing the law on its own. He stated that it was improper for people in power to decide who was right or wrong and who should live or die.
"The BJP government is attempting to divert attention away from the real issues by conducting fake encounters. The BJP has no faith in the legal system. Today's and recent encounters ought to be thoroughly probed, and the perpetrators should not be forgiven. The decision of what is right or wrong cannot be made by those in positions of power. BJP is against harmony," Yadav tweeted in Hindi.
The former chief minister was commenting on the deaths of Ahmad's son Asad and an aide, both wanted in the Umesh Pal murder case, in an encounter with Uttar Pradesh Police near Jhansi on Thursday.
The police stated that Asad and Ghulam were attempting to escape on a motorbike when they were stopped in Jhansi by a Special Task Force team. They opened fire on the team and were killed as a result of the retaliatory fire. The police allegedly found sophisticated foreign-made weapons from them.
The encounter occurred on the same day Ahmad appeared in Prayagraj court in the same murder case and was sentenced to 14 days in judicial custody.
Umesh Pal, a key witness in the 2005 murder of then-BSP MLA Raju Pal, and his two police guards were fatally shot dead outside his home in Prayagraj's Dhoomanganj district on February 24 this year.
