Abaan Ahmed, the youngest son of slain gangster-turned-politician Atiq Ahmed, died in a road accident on the Jhansi-Kanpur National Highway in Uttar Pradesh on Thursday morning, police said. The car he was travelling in lost control and hit the divider under the Poonch police station limits in Jhansi district. Abaan was on his way to meet his elder brother lodged in a Jhansi jail.
Another person, identified as Sonu, also died in the crash. Two others critically injured are being treated at Montha Community Health Centre. Police reached the spot, carried out rescue operations, and began legal proceedings. The district police said peace and law and order remain normal at the scene.
Some voices may rush to label this as a targeted attack linked to the family's criminal past. But the police report points to a simple road accident, loss of control on a highway. Without evidence of foul play, such assumptions feed into public cynicism. The real test will be the post-mortem and forensic report. If no tampering shows up, this is a tragic coincidence, not a conspiracy. Will those who jump to conclusions accept that? Or will they always see a hand where there is only a divider?
