Despite being jailed, Atiq murder accused active on social media

Pratapgarh: Lovelesh Tiwari, one of the accused in the murders of gangster Atiq Ahmed and his brother Ashraf, is active on the social media despite being lodged in the Pratapgarh jail.

“We have started an investigation. This is serious,” he said.
