New SOPs For Journalists Soon After Atiq Ahmed's Killers Posed As Mediapersons

On the direction of Prime Minister Narendra Modi, the Ministry of Home Affairs has decided to prepare Standard Operating Procedure (SOP) for the safety of journalists in the wake of three assailants, posing as mediapersons, killing gangster Atiq Ahmed and his brother Ashraf, sources said.

The MHA, under the leadership of the Prime minister and guidance of Union Home Minister Amit Shah, will prepare the SOPs for the safety and security of journalists, they said.

The step is being taken after the three attackers killed gangster-turned-politician Ahmed and his brother Ashraf in Prayagraj Saturday night while they were speaking to reporters, they said.

The two brothers were shot dead at point-blank range by the three men posing as journalists in the middle of a media interaction on Saturday night while police personnel were escorting them to a medical college for a checkup.

79 Arrested For Clashes In Odisha's Sambalpur, Internet Remains Suspended

The Odisha Police has arrested 79 people for their alleged involvement in the violence in Sambalpur city during Hanuman Jayanti celebrations, officials said Sunday.

The situation is gradually limping back to normalcy in Sambalpur, where curfew is still continuing along with suspension of internet, they said. Sambalpur SP B Gangadhar said there has been no report of any untoward incident since the curfew was ordered in the city early Saturday.

A number of accused persons are still on the run, police said.

"While 26 people were arrested in connection with the stone pelting incident during bike rally on April 12, 53 others have been taken into custody for violence and arson during the procession on April 14," Mr Gangadhar said.

"It appears to be a pre-planned violence as per the indications received so far. More arrests will be made in future," he said.

The state government has suspended internet services in Sambalpur district till 10 am of April 17, the SP said.

Odisha DGP Sunil K Bansal said stringent action will be taken against those involved in the violence, and expressed hope that normalcy will be restored in a day or two in the city.

The prohibitory orders, however, were relaxed for students and candidates of various recruitment examinations on Sunday, police said.

Meanwhile, Union minister Giriraj Singh said it is unfortunate that the state government has been adopting an "appeasement policy" while dealing with the case.

"The government is shielding some people involved in the violence," he alleged.

Countering him, BJD leader and MLA Amar Satpathy said the government has taken action as per the law.

Bodies Of Atiq Ahmed, Brother Taken To Burial Ground After Post-Mortem

The bodies of gangster-politician Atiq Ahmad and his brother Khalid Azeem alias Ashraf were handed over to the family members after post-mortem on Sunday for performing the funeral rites.

The bodies of Ahmad and Ashraf were taken to the Kasari Masari graveyard in an ambulance, in which an elderly person of the family was also seen.

Atiq's son Asad, an accused in the Umesh Pal murder case who fell to police bullets, was buried at the same graveyard here on Saturday.

The graveyard is located in Ahmad's ancestral village and his parents were also laid to rest there.

There is heavy police presence at the graveyard and only a few distant relatives of the dead brothers and locals are present inside the burial ground.

Asad was the third of the five sons of Ahmad and was on the run since Umesh Pal's killing on February 24.

Hours after Asad was interred, Ahmad (60) and Ashraf, who were in handcuffs, were shot dead at point-blank range by three men posing as journalists when they were answering queries from reporters while being escorted by police personnel to a medical college here for a checkup.
