Lakhimpur-Kheri violence: Union minister Ajay Mishra’s son to face trial

UP, 5/12: Union minister Ajay Mishra’s son Ashish Mishra, who was the prime accused in the killing of four farmers in Lakhimpur Kheri district in Uttar Pradesh in October last year, will face trial in the matter following rejection of his petition seeking removal of his name from the case by a local court.

 

 

Charges against Ashish Mishra and others would be framed on Tuesday.

 

Ashish Mishra and others had approached the court seeking direction to the police to drop their names from the case, which pertained to killing of four farmers during an agitation in Lakhimpur Kheri last year by the farmers in protest against the now scrapped farm laws.
