"In Lucknow, such murders are happening back to back. There is nothing called law and order here. If the state government itself believes that such murders are ok then who is going to stop them?...there are a lot of 'Asurs' here, 'Asurs' are those who commit atrocities against people..." SP MP said while talking to ANI.
On Wednesday, Jeeva was fatally shot by a man posing as a lawyer inside the Lucknow civil court premises.
Following the murder, police said that as many as six Lucknow police personnel were suspended for negligence.
