Days after jailed gangster-politician Atiq Ahmed’s son Umar Ahmed‘s convoy allegedly skipped toll payments and tried to run over toll plaza employees en route to his brother’s funeral, Uttar Pradesh Police are on their toes, racing to identify who coordinated the dozens of private vehicles that tailed the prison convoy from Lucknow to Prayagraj. According to a report by Hindustan Times, investigators are now working to establish whether these vehicles travelled with the convoy from the outset or joined it at different points along the route, even as CCTV footage from toll plazas is being cross-referenced with vehicle registration data to build a timeline of the journey.

Four FIRs have already been registered in Prayagraj, Pratapgarh and Fatehpur over the toll plaza violations, threats to staff and attempts to drive vehicles into employees. Did The Vehicles Travel With Convoy From Lucknow, Or Join Along The Way? This is central to the current phase of the probe. Per HT, police are examining whether the vehicles accompanied Umar’s convoy right from Lucknow or fell in at various points en route to Prayagraj — a distinction that could indicate whether the gathering was pre-planned as a single coordinated movement or an accumulation of vehicles joining opportunistically as news of the convoy’s route spread. Who Was Driving, And Who Was In The Vehicles? Investigators are seeking to identify not just vehicle owners but the actual drivers and passengers present at the time of the toll plaza incidents, the publication stated. Police have already identified some owners through registration numbers and begun questioning them — asking specifically who informed them about the trip and why they chose to join the convoy.
