A political controversy has emerged following the police encounter in Uttar Pradesh where the main suspect in the Khoda murder case was killed. The Maharashtra Samajwadi Party chief, Abu Azmi, criticized the encounter, suggesting it was influenced by religious factors. The incident involved the shooting of Asad, the prime accused in the murder of Surya Pratap Chauhan.
Samajwadi Party leader Abu Azmi condemned the encounter, emphasizing the need for legal procedures to be followed for criminals. He expressed concerns about the selective nature of such police actions and alleged a bias based on religion.
