After the murder of Atiq Ahmed and Ashraf, CM Yogi had taken strict action and suspended the policemen posted in the security. The policemen first failed to identify the assailants who fired at Atiq and his brother Ashraf and then their fingers could not even reach the trigger of their weapons. The way the miscreants hurled abuses in no time and during that time the policemen standing in front remained spectators. Questions are also being raised regarding this.

questions raised on police

It is clear that only high-spirited policemen would have been deployed for the security of Mafia Atiq. They must have been equipped with all the modern weapons as well. Despite this, none of the policemen present on the spot could fire a single bullet at the attackers, whereas a policeman was also injured due to the miscreants firing.
