The Uttar Pradesh government on Sunday formed a three-member judicial committee to probe the killing of gangster-turned-politician Atiq Ahmad and his brother Ashraf Ahmad. The commission will be headed by Allahabad high court judge (retired) Arvind Kumar Tripathi, and will include two other members – retired judge Brijesh Kumar Soni and former DGP Subesh Kumar Singh.
According to officials, the three-member panel will have to submit its report in two months to the state government. They added that the committee has been formed under the Commission of Inquiry Act, 1952.
Atiq and his brother Ashraf were shot dead in full media glare by three men posing as journalists in Prayagraj on Saturday night. The shooting took place around 10 pm while the Ahmad brothers were being taken for a medical examination as a mandatory legal requirement.
