Atiq & Ashraf were told by police officer about their killings: Lawyer

Gangster-turned-politician Atiq Ahmed and his brother Ashraf Ahmed's lawyer Vijay Mishra alleged that the duo was told by a police officer in UP earlier that they will be 'taken out of jail and eliminated within 15 days'. Mishra also said that Ashraf had then refused to divulge the name of the police officer. The brothers were later shot dead in Prayagraj.
