President’s Medal for Gallantry for UP cops who eliminated gangster Atiq Ahmed’s son, shooter

Lucknow: The police officers who neutralised gangster-turned-politician late Atiq Ahmed’s son Asad Ahmed and shooter Mohammad Ghulam, will be awarded the President’s Medal for Gallantry.

This medal will be presented on August 15, on the occasion of Independence Day to the policemen.

Both Asad and Ghulam were wanted in the Umesh Pal murder case and had a bounty of Rs 5 lakh each on their heads.

On April 13, 2023 the Special Task Force (STF) team, neutralised Asad and Mohammad Ghulam in an encounter in Jhansi.

Asad and Ghulam were both on the run after shooting Umesh Pal in broad daylight and the Uttar Pradesh (UP) Police had been trying to trace them.

In an encounter led by Deputy SP Navendu and Deputy SP Vimal of the UP STF in Jhansi, both accused were shot by the police.

The Jhansi police managed to neutralize both of them in just 50 days after Umesh Pal’s murder.

The STF recovered a British Bull Dog revolver and a Walther pistol from both of them.

Asad and Mohammad Ghulam were hiding near Paricha Dam in Jhansi, that lies between Bada Gaon and Chirgaon police station areas in the state.

The video of the brazen murder of Umesh Pal on February 24, 2023 had gone viral on social media.

Umesh Pal who was the main witness in the Raju Pal murder case, was killed in Prayagraj and the whole incident had been captured by the CCTVs installed in the area.

Umesh Pal was shot by the two gangsters while exiting his car in a lane while he was heading home. Bombs were also thrown during the attack, which resulted in the deaths of Umesh Pal and his two government-assigned gunners.

Asad Ahmed was killed in the encounter before the murders of his father Atiq and uncle Ashraf Ahmed while they were in police custody last year.
