Atiq Ahmed gang legal and criminal investigations

Overview

Law enforcement in Prayagraj has intensified actions against the gang associated with the deceased mafia Atiq Ahmed. Police initiated legal proceedings under the Gangster Act against Imran, the brother-in-law of Ahmed, identifying him as an alleged gang leader along with his mother and two sons.

Concurrently, authorities transferred Arman Bihari, a wanted shooter linked to the gang, from a jail in Bihar to Prayagraj. Bihari, who had a reward of 5 lakh rupees on his head, is a primary suspect in the February 2023 murder of lawyer Umesh Pal and two government guards. Following his transfer, a special court placed Bihari in 14-day judicial custody. Police are seeking further custody to interrogate him regarding the murder and his alleged accomplices.
