Have faith in government: Family of Apple-executive killed by policeman
The family of Apple executive, shot dead by a policeman in Gomti Nagar area in Lucknow, met Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath today and said that they "have faith" in UP government. "I have said earlier that I have faith in the State Government. This faith has been strengthened after meeting the CM," said Kalpana Tiwari, the wife of Vivek Tiwari (38).
Vivek was shot dead when he refused to stop car
"I have lost capacity to take a stand after the unfortunate incident, which should not have happened. It has shaken me. After meeting the CM, I have gained confidence that I will be able to fulfill the responsibilities my husband left on me," Kalpana said. Vivek Tiwari was shot dead on September 29 when he allegedly refused to stop his car.
Kalpana wants strict action against the guilty
"All my demands have been met. I wanted strict action against the guilty, a job, accommodation, expenses for my mother-in-law and for education of my daughters. The CM acceded to all my demands," Kalpana said. Vivek's wife, brother-in-law, and two daughters were taken to CM Adityanath's 5 Kalidas Marg residence by Deputy Chief Minister Dinesh Sharma who had visited the Tiwaris today morning.
Adityanath assured family of all possible help
Meanwhile, Chief Minister Adityanath assured the Tiwari family of all possible help and also met the two daughters and consoled the family promising strict action against the guilty. "The family is satisfied with the action taken. We will be giving all possible help to the victim's family including a job to Kalpana as per her educational qualifications," the Deputy Chief Minister said.
Accused constables have been dismissed from service, arrested
Two constables, Prashant Chowdhury and Sandeep Kumar, have been arrested on the basis of an FIR lodged by Vivek's colleague Sana Khan, who was traveling with him at the time of the incident. The two accused have also been dismissed from the service. Vivek's body was yesterday cremated at Bhaisakund in presence of State Minister Brijesh Pathak and local MLA Ashutosh Tandon.
