Atiq Ahmad's son Aban killed in Jhansi SUV road accident
A young man named Aban Ahmad was travelling in a car with friends when something went very wrong.
The car crashed into the middle of a road in a city called Jhansi.
Aban and one of his friends died in the crash.
Three other people were hurt and had to go to the hospital.
Aban's friend said the car was going very fast and the driver could not control it.
Police are checking cameras along the road to find out exactly what happened.
Aban's family is well known because his father, Atiq Ahmad, was a famous gangster and politician who was shot in 2023.
The court allowed Aban's two brothers, who are in jail, to leave for a little while so they could attend his funeral.
Aban's body was taken to Prayagraj, where he was buried.
Aban Ahmad, youngest son of slain gangster-turned-politician Atiq Ahmad, and his 25-year-old friend Sonu died when their SUV crashed into a road divider in Jhansi.
The crash occurred around 10.30 am on the Kanpur-Jhansi Road in the Poonch area in a Hyundai Creta (UP 70 FW 2432).
Injured friend Mohammad Umar alleged the car was travelling at high speed and the driver lost control; police said preliminary findings support a high-speed, uncontrolled crash.
Police are reviewing CCTV footage and investigating whether an animal suddenly appearing on the road caused the driver to lose control, with no definite conclusion yet.
The Allahabad High Court granted parole to Aban's imprisoned brothers Ali and Umar so they could attend his burial in Prayagraj.
