Ashish Mishra was named in a first information report (FIR) following allegations that he was in one of the vehicles that mowed down farmers protesting against UP deputy chief minister Keshav Prasad Maurya's visit on Sunday.
In photos posted by the ANI news agency, it was seen that the UP police has already started making preparations to tighten the security in Lakhimpur Kheri police lines, ahead of Ashish Mishra's expected appearance before the cops today.
Ashish Mishra, the son of Union minister of state (MoS) of home affairs Ajay Mishra ‘Teni’, is expected to appear before the Uttar Pradesh police at 11am on Saturday for questioning in connection with the incident where eight people lost their lives.
Ashish Mishra was previously summoned as a witness, not an accused, by the police on Friday but he failed to appear before them. MoS Teni later said his son was unable to report to the police due to ‘health reasons’. After this, the UP police pasted
a fresh notice outside the minister's residence asking his son Ashish Mishra to appear before them for questioning on October 9.
