अतीक अहमद के छोटे बेटे अबान की सड़क हादसे में मौतझांसी हाईवे पर बड़ा हादसा, अतीक अहमद के बेटे अबान का निधन pic.twitter.com/XTupkOH7hz — News18 Bihar (@News18Bihar) August 6, 2026 Though, it is being said that was on his way to meet his brother Ali Ahmed, lodged in Jhansi jail, when his speeding car collided with the road divider. Who Was Atiq Ahmed? Awan was the son of Atiq Ahmed, one of Uttar Pradesh’s most controversial political figures, whose life was marked by a mix of political success and serious criminal allegations. Born into a poor family in Prayagraj, Atiq Ahmed rose from humble beginnings to become a powerful strongman with significant political influence. Despite being a school dropout, he built a formidable network over the years, gaining both wealth and clout. Beginning in 1989, he was elected five times as a Member of the Legislative Assembly from Prayagraj (then called Allahabad) and later served as a Member of Parliament from the Phulpur constituency in 2004.
Atiq Ahmed cultivated an image among some sections as a benefactor who helped the poor, often providing financial assistance for weddings, festivals and education. However, this persona was overshadowed by a long list of criminal allegations, including murder, kidnapping, extortion and land grabbing. Criminal Empire More than 100 cases were registered against him over the years, and he spent extended periods in jail, though he continued to exert influence in the region. His political standing weakened after his ties with the Samajwadi Party ended and the Bharatiya Janata Party rose to power in the state. He was arrested in 2017 in connection with an assault case and later shifted to a prison in Gujarat. In 2023, Atiq Ahmed and his brother were shot dead while in police custody, days after being named in connection with the killing of Umesh Pal, a key witness in a 2005 murder case involving BSP leader Raju Pal.
