According to the media reports, the cow was killed on the spot of the incident.

A video has surfaced on the internet that showed that the convoy of police has stooped midway.

Tendua police station in-charge Manish Kumar Jadoun said Atiq Ahmed was travelling in the vehicle that hit the cow.

On Sunday, Atiq Ahmed was taken out of Gujarat’s Sabarmati jail and set to shift to Prayagraj by today’s evening amid strict security arrangements.

Atiq Ahmed is accused of orchestrating the kidnapping and assault of a real estate businessman, Mohit Jaiswal while in jail.

He has also been named in over 100 criminal cases, including the recent murder case of Umesh Pal. On February 24 this year, Pal was gunned down outside his residence in Prayagraj.

On March 28, Atiq will be produced before a court in Prayagraj, where the verdict in the case will be pronounced.

In a video shared by news agency ANI, the police convoy could be seen at Jhansi Police Lines.

Later, the convoy halted briefly at Kharai in Shivpuri district to allow Ahmed to attend nature’s call before crossing into Jhansi in Uttar Pradesh.

‘kahe ka dar’

When Ahmed, wearing a white turban, got down from the police van, reporters asked him whether he was “afraid”, to which he replied by saying “kahe ka dar” (what fear) before police personnel whisked him away.

Notably, after stepping out of Sabarmati central jail in Ahmedabad on Sunday evening, Ahmed expressed fear that he might be murdered.

“Hatya, Hatya (murder, murder),” Ahmed had told reporters outside the prison while being whisked away in a police vehicle by security personnel.
