Two arrested in UP for glorifying Atiq Ahmed on social media

UP, 25/4: Two persons have been arrested and sent to jail for praising slain gangster-turned-politician Atiq Ahmed on social media by calling him a “lion that was killed while being trapped in a cage…and those responsible would have to pay a price.”

The two have been booked under the IT Act and other sections of the IPC.

 

According to police, the first accused, a 35-year-old man from Bithri Chainpur in the district, had shared a “provocative post” on his twitter handle regarding the murders of Atiq Ahmed and his brother Ashraf in Prayagraj recently.
