<p>The shooting spree for the killing of Umesh Pal in Uttar Pradesh&#8217;s Prayagraj on February 24 has come as a turning point for the Ahmed family.&nbsp;Amidst tight police security, three Islamists shot dead Atiq Ahmed and his brother Ashraf Ahmed.&nbsp;Significantly, both the brothers were prime accused in the Umesh Pal murder case… The planning of the two was carried out by Atiq&#8217;s son Asad Ahmed, who has faced the police earlier.&nbsp;So far 6 accused including Atiq brothers have been killed in the Umesh Pal murder case.&nbsp;Umesh Pal was an eyewitness to the killing of BSP MLA Raju Pal, who was shot dead by Asad and his accomplices outside his residence in Prayagraj.&nbsp;This shootout on February 24 was no less than the shooting of a film.&nbsp;CCTV footage of the incident showed horrific gunfire and shelling, with Asad Ahmed himself seen firing at Umesh Pal.&nbsp;Along with Umesh Pal, his 2 security guards were also killed.&nbsp;The day after the shooting-bomb blast, Umesh&#8217;s wife filed a case against Atiq, Ashraf, Atiq&#8217;s wife Shaista Parveen, two sons, assistants Guddu Muslim and Ghulam and nine others.&nbsp;After this, the Prayagraj police started investigating the matter.&nbsp;Three days after Umesh Pal&#8217;s murder, Prayagraj police killed Asad&#8217;s driver and his companions in an encounter on February 27.&nbsp;Accused Usman was also arrested by the police.&nbsp;The encounter took place on March 6 in Prayagraj itself.</p>



<p>The Prayagraj police got a big success when Asad Ahmed, the son of Atiq, the accused of Umesh Pal&#8217;s murder, and Ghulam, the other accused, came to know.&nbsp;When the police arrived, Asad and Ghulam were trying to run away.&nbsp;They were on a bike and allegedly fired at least 40 rounds at the police team.&nbsp;Finally on April 13, the police team had an encounter with both of them.&nbsp;Pictures of Asad and Ghulam after the encounter also surfaced.&nbsp;He fell from the bike after being shot.&nbsp;The bike was also found lying next to Asad&#8217;s dead body.&nbsp;Both Asad and Ghulam were also seen holding pistols, with both their fingers on the trigger.&nbsp;Now the opposition is also raising questions on the killing of Atiq brothers.</p>



<p>Atiq Ahmed has also been a Member of Parliament from the Samajwadi Party.&nbsp;He was brought to Prayagraj from Gujarat&#8217;s Sabarmati Jail to be produced in court.&nbsp;In the Umesh Pal murder case, the court remanded both the brothers and they were in police custody.&nbsp;The police were taking the two brothers to hospital for a medical check-up after an operation to search for alleged weapons in the forests when three gunmen opened fire on them.&nbsp;All the three attackers who fired at Atiq Brothers surrendered to the police at the same time.&nbsp;It is being said that along with the firing, the accused also raised slogans of Jai Shri Ram.&nbsp;The three accused have been identified as Lovelesh Tiwari, Sunny and Arun Maurya.</p>



<p>Atiq&#8217;s son Asad was buried in Kasari Masari Cemetery.&nbsp;His burial was attended by very few people and a heavy police presence was also deployed during it.&nbsp;Atiq was being interrogated three kilometers from the graveyard, but he could not see his son&#8217;s face.&nbsp;Even at the last moment when the reporter asked him why he didn&#8217;t go to his son&#8217;s funeral, Atiq replied, the police didn&#8217;t take him. Shortly after, an assailant shot him in the head and he fell on the ground.&nbsp;And the important chapters of the entire Atiq Bandhu were over.</p>
