Man Hires Killers To Murder Lover's Husband, Father; taxi driver killed in mistaken identity case
Lucknow: The Uttar Pradesh police have uncovered that the murder of a taxi driver in Lucknow on December 30 was a case of mistaken identity. The victim, Mohammad Rizwan, was killed by a hitman gang reportedly hired by lawyer Aaftab Ahmed to eliminate the family members of a woman allegedly in a relationship with him.
Ahmed's plan targeted the woman's husband and father, but the hitmen mistakenly killed Rizwan in the Madehganj area. Investigations revealed that Ahmed had paid an advance of ₹2 lakh to the gang, who failed to receive the remaining amount after the botched attempt. The police have arrested Ahmed and two gang members, recovering an illegal firearm, live cartridges, a motorcycle, and mobile phones used in the crime. The accused are set to be presented in court.
In an unrelated incident, Lucknow police are investigating the murder of a woman and her four daughters in a hotel room, allegedly orchestrated by her son, Mohammad Arshad, with the involvement of her husband, Mohammad Badr. While Arshad is in judicial custody after confessing to the crime in a video, four police teams are working to arrest Badr.
