In view of this information, teams of civil police and special forces were deployed," said Prashant Kumar.Revealing further as to how the encounter took place, He said that based on the information, two teams were deployed and Asad was intercepted, while he was on a bike along with his aide Ghulam."Action was taken on the basis of information and at around 12:30 and 1 pm the duo were killed in a retaliatory firing," Kumar said, adding that the Special Task Force conducted the entire operation.He said special teams were constituted and were consistently following the case since the murder of Umesh Pal.On March 28, Atiq Ahmed was convicted by an MP-MLA court and sentenced to rigorous life imprisonment in the abduction case of now-deceased Umesh Pal.Atiq Ahmed and his family came under the scanner in the Umesh Pal murder case.Atiq Ahmed, who has over 100 cases against him over the last 43 years, has been convicted in the same case.Umesh Pal, a key witness to the murder of Bahujan Samaj Party leader Raju Pal and one of his two armed security escorts was shot dead in Prayagraj's Sulem Saray area on February 24.Several rounds were fired and bombs were hurled at Umesh and his gunners, according to officials.Disclaimer: This post has been auto-published from an agency feed without any modifications to the text and has not been reviewed by an editor
