Uttar Pradesh police has recently announced to double the reward on jailed gangster Atiq Ahmed’s wife, Shaista Parveen, who is on the run-in connection in the Umesh Pal murder case.

UP police have increased the reward amount from ₹25,000 to ₹50,000.

Prashant Kumar, Additional Director General (ADG), Law and Order stated that “A reward amount for the fugitive Shaista Parveen has been increased from ₹25,000 to ₹50,000, who is currently absconding.”

Shaista recently submitted a bail application in court and stated that she had been falsely implicated in the Umesh Pal Murder case.

ADG Kumar said that “The anticipatory bail application has also been rejected by the Allahabad District Court.”

Atiq Ahmed and his family came under the scanner in the Umesh Pal murder case.

Mafia don-turned-politician Atiq Ahmed , on March 28 was convicted by an MP-MLA court and sentenced to rigorous life imprisonment in the abduction case of now-deceased Umesh Pal.
