Atiq Ahmad’s Diverse Life – Crime to Politics

Crime

Atiq Ahmad was a five-time state legislator and former member of Parliament from Phulpur. He rose to prominence in the 1990s and established himself in the realm of organised crime, using his fief to dictate local land deals, contracts, and real estate developments. He was declared the winner as an independent candidate, kicking off a long and contentious career in which he employed a mix of crime and politics. He held court at his sumptuous home in the Chakia neighbourhood, just 2 kilometres from the Colvin Hospital grounds where he was gunned down. The most important details of the phrases Raju Pal, political, court, and state are that Ahmad would hold court and judge his opponents’ fate, and even sentenced people in several cases.

He won As an independent again in 1991 and 1993, and joined the Samajwadi Party three years later. Raju Pal, a key witness in the 2005 Raju Pal murder investigation, was sentenced to life in prison for kidnapping lawyer Umesh Pal in 2006. In 2018, a Lucknow-based realtor was allegedly thrashed and kidnapped by Ahmad’s aides, leading to the Supreme Court to order Ahmad’s removal from the state. Ahmad was arrested for the first time, but his conviction did not affect his power, as he allegedly continued to run his crime empire from inside bars, even ordering strikes and killings. In 2016, his aides allegedly assaulted the personnel of a college in Prayagraj for taking action against pupils detected cheating on a test.

As a result, Ahmad was caught and imprisoned the following year, and in 2018, he fled the states. Ahmad died not long after, highlighting the increasing infamy of the case.
