Taking into account the heinous and brutal murder of Hindu Samaj Party leader late Kamlesh Tiwari by radical Muslims, the UP CM directed officers to put the murderers on a fast track trial. He has also directed the officers to ensure an effective legal team for the same.
The Jihadi style execution saw Kamlesh Tiwari being stabbed multiple times to inflict maximum pain and he was also shot.
Such executions are not unknown in India, but the Kamlesh Tiwari’s murder in Naka area of Lucknow has again exposed the fragile security for Hindu leaders.
On Tuesday, two accused in the Kamlesh Tiwari murder case – Ashfaq Hussain Jakirhussain Shaikh (34) and Moinuddin Khurshid Pathan (27) – were arrested by Gujarat Anti-Terrorism Squad (ATS) from the Gujarat-Rajasthan border.
