Atique Ahmed’s Killing
It is mentioned the decision is being taken after three assailants posing as journalists killed Atique Ahmed and Ashraf Ahmed in Prayagraj.
The decision has been taken under the guidance of Home Minister Amit Shah and the leadership of Prime Minister Narendra Modi.
”The shooters were posing as journalists. As Atique reached for a check-up, they were surrounded by other journalists and got close to Atique and his brother. One was having a camera and was posing as a cameraman. Another was roaming around with a mike on which were inscribed the words NCR News. The third was assisting both,” a police source stated.
