TL;DR Summary

Former Indian politician Atiq Ahmed and his brother were gunned down by three men disguised as journalists on live television. Ahmed, a convicted criminal, faced multiple investigations related to cases of kidnapping, extortion, and murder. The attack came just days after police gunned down Ahmed's 19-year-old son in a shootout. Police killings are not uncommon in India's Uttar Pradesh state, with activists saying such "police encounters" are little more than executions.
