What Atiq Ahmed earned in 44 years by mafia, the Yogi government destroyed it in 48 days

The terror and terror that mafia Atiq Ahmed took 44 years to create in many cities of the state from Prayagraj in Uttar Pradesh, was ended by the Yogi Adityanath government of UP in just 48 days. The Yogi government is now getting the support of the Enforcement Directorate in destroying the black business empire of Atiq and his close ones.

Let us tell you that the first criminal case against Atiq Ahmed was registered in 1979 at Khuldabad police station in Prayagraj. Since then, in his criminal journey of 44 years, 102 cases were registered against him, but no government could get him punished in any case. This became possible for the first time in Yogi Raj when the court of MP-MLA sentenced Atiq to life imprisonment in the case of kidnapping of advocate Umesh Pal, witness of former BSP MLA Raju Pal murder case.

Here, on 24 February 2023, after the audacity of Atiq and his henchmen to unsuccessfully challenge the law and order by killing Umesh Pal, UP CM Yogi’s determination to destroy the mafia destroyed Atiq’s crime and Jarayam’s empire. . Atiq’s son Asad along with his 4 henchmen were killed in an encounter by the police. The property worth 1400 crores of him and his accomplices, acquired through crime, has been confiscated. This is believed to be the end of Atiq’s terror.

Let us tell you that on the one hand, the process of razing the mafia to the ground is going on, while on the other hand, the investigative agencies related to economic crimes have also started hurting Atiq’s economic empire. 15 teams of the Enforcement Directorate, engaged in the investigation of the money laundering case registered against Atiq Ahmed, have raided several locations of Atiq’s close friends in Prayagraj. This includes the names of Atiq Ahmed’s lawyer Khan Shaulat Hanif, Atiq’s accountant Sitaram Shukla, real estate businessman Khalid Zafar, former BSP MLA Asif Jafri, builder Sanjeev Aggarwal, car showroom owner Deepak Bhargava. Benami properties worth more than 100 crores have also been revealed in this action. By the way, Atik was booked two years ago in 2021 under the Prevention of Money Laundering Act and his property worth 8 crores was confiscated in this case.

Let us also tell you that in the action taken at the locations of Atiq Ahmed’s close friends in Prayagraj city, the Enforcement Directorate has found very important evidence in the money laundering case, which has exposed his black business network. The documents recovered during the raids of ED have also revealed more than 50 such shell companies which are dummy companies whose owner is someone else in the documents, but the amount was invested by Ateeq. Through them, Atiq used to convert his black money into white. These companies include MJ Infra Green Pvt Ltd, M/s Jafri State Ltd, Fanaa Associated Pvt Ltd, MJ Infra Housing Pvt Ltd, F&A Associate Pvt Ltd, Asad City, MJ Infra State Pvt Ltd and MJ Infra Land, LLP . Most of these are those companies, about which the district police had already sent a letter to the government requesting them to be investigated by the Enforcement Directorate.

On the other hand, gangster-turned-politician Atiq Ahmed could not even see the body of his son Asad Ahmed. The burial took place at the Kasari Masari cemetery on Saturday morning amid tight security. Only relatives and acquaintances of Atiq Ahmed were allowed to enter the cemetery and media persons were not allowed inside. The ambulance carrying Asad’s body reached the cemetery at around 9 am amid heavy security. Assad’s uncle Usman was with the dead body in the ambulance. The process of burying the body at the Kasari Masari cemetery took about an hour. During this, no close member of Atiq Ahmed and his family was seen. A large number of police forces were deployed around the cemetery.

Joint Commissioner of Police Akash Kulhari said that only a few distant relatives of Atiq and people of his locality were allowed to enter the cemetery. On Friday, through his lawyer, Atiq Ahmed had given an application to the magistrate to attend his son’s funeral, which was to be decided in the court of the Chief Judicial Magistrate on Saturday, but before the court proceedings, the body was handed over to the magistrate. The burial process is complete. Let us tell you that Asad was the third son of Atiq Ahmed’s five sons and Umesh Pal was absconding since the murder. Atiq’s eldest son Umar is lodged in Lucknow Jail, while his younger son Ali is lodged in Naini Central Jail. At the same time, the fourth son Ahjam and the youngest son Aban are in the Child Improvement Home of Prayagraj.

Let us also tell you that Shaista Parveen, wife of Atiq Ahmed and Zainab, wife of his brother Ashraf Ahmed, are also absconding in the Umesh Pal murder case, so no member of Atiq’s family could attend Asad’s funeral. Janu Khan, who dug Asad’s grave in the Kasari Masari cemetery, told that Asad’s grave has been dug near the graves of Atiq Ahmed’s mother and his father.
