On Monday (April 24), a disturbing video of slain dreaded gangster Atiq Ahmed’s son Asad Ahmed and his accomplice torturing and assaulting an unarmed, naked man has gone viral on social media.
In the footage, the son of gangster-politician Atiq Ahmed could be seen hitting the victim with a leather belt. One of his henchmen could also be seen kicking the man, who was stripped to his toes.
The incident is said to be from January 19, 2021, and was reportedly recorded in a flat in Lucknow city of Uttar Pradesh. The cops have recovered the disturbing footage from Asad Ahmed’s phone.
