Atiq Ahmed Murder Case Latest Update: UP Police recreate crime scene in Prayagraj

The ongoing investigation into the murder of Atiq and Ashraf in police custody has led the special investigation team (SIT) to recreate the crime scene in Prayagraj. The two men were shot at point-blank range by three assailants who posed as journalists while police officers were escorting them to a hospital in the Shahganj police station area for a checkup on Saturday night. The SIT is trying to gather as much evidence as possible to identify the culprits and bring them to justice.

Recreating the crime scene is a crucial part of the investigation, as it helps investigators understand the sequence of events and how the crime was committed. It also enables them to identify any potential witnesses who may have seen or heard something relevant to the case.

The murder of Atiq and Ashraf has sparked widespread outrage and raised serious questions about the safety and security of individuals in police custody. The police officers who were escorting the two men have been suspended pending an inquiry, and the SIT is working tirelessly to solve the case and ensure that justice is served.

The incident has also highlighted the need for better security protocols and training for police officers who are responsible for transporting suspects and prisoners. The government has promised to take all necessary measures to prevent such incidents from happening again in the future.
