7th June 2023… It was around 4 in the evening. Some policemen arrived inside the Kaiserbagh courtroom with Mukhtar Ansari and the special shooter Sanjeev Jeeva. Sanjeev was to be heard in the court in the murder case. Sanjeev was sitting on a chair. Many policemen and lawyers were roaming around. Just then, a man in a black coat like a lawyer comes and starts firing indiscriminately. Sanjeev got 4 bullets due to which he died.
Sanjeev was already serving life imprisonment… Sanjeev Jeeva, who was the most wanted criminal of West UP, used to work as a compounder in a private clinic to run his house. But due to the greed of money and his ego, he kidnaps the doctor of the same clinic, who hired him.
After this incident, his spirits got high. Gradually his crimes increased so much that he became a headache for the police. Let us know Sanjeev’s entire criminal record from the beginning. Before proceeding further, have a look at this photo of the murder.
This is the scene of the court premises. In this, the body of Sanjeev Jeeva is lying in the court.
Sanjeev wanted to become a doctor in his childhood.
It’s a matter of the 90s. There was a quack doctor’s dispensary in Muzaffarnagar. Naam Shankar Dawakhana. He claimed that he would get rid of alcohol. A boy used to work in this dispensary. My name is Sanjeev Maheshwari. His main work was to grind medicines and make medicines and give them to the patients. The work of the compounder but the people around used to call Sanjeev a doctor.
Sanjeev was very good in studies since childhood. His dream was to grow up to become a doctor. But the condition of his house was not good. That’s why at an early age he started working as a compounder in a dispensary. Sanjeev’s family used to survive with the money he got from there. Everything was going well till now.
The doctor sent Sanjeev to recover the money, he brought the money
One day, like everyday, Sanjeev reached the dispensary at 10 am. Patients started coming and going. Sanjeev was also going to do the work of making medicine. But Sanjeev’s doctor owner gave his compounder another job that day instead of grinding medicine. The owner of the dispensary was very upset for many days. A man had borrowed money from him who was not returning it for a long time.
The owner told Sanjeev that if he brings the money, he will get whatever he wants. Sanjeev went and returned not empty handed. He came and brought the entire money and put it in the hands of the doctor. Very happy with this work of Dr. Sanjeev. Gave him a reward too. But after this incident a new criminal was born in western UP.
Sanjeev kidnapped his own doctor boss
Now Sanjeev not only makes medicines, but on the orders of the doctor, he also started the work of money recovery. There was blood in the lion’s mouth. That’s why Sanjeev now had to do something big rather than small recovery. He started this with the same person who had made him take the first step on the path of crime.
Sanjeev kidnapped his own doctor Malik. He demanded a huge ransom and released him only after receiving the money. But after that an incident happened which created a ruckus. The son of a big Kolkata businessman was kidnapped. A demand of two crore rupees was kept from the businessman in lieu of leaving the son. The kidnapper was Sanjeev. In the 90s, the ransom of two crores was so huge that this news created panic from Shamli to Muzaffarnagar.
In the picture is Sanjeev Jeeva. After the kidnapping of the businessman’s son, Sanjeev became the talk of the town among high profile criminals.
A high profile criminal takes Sanjeev as his protégé.
Muzaffarnagar… a place which has always been famous for the cultivation of Asla. When the story of Sanjeev reached Ravi Prakash, a high profile criminal there, he made Sanjeev his disciple. From here Sanjeev’s graph started growing rapidly.
After coming in contact with Ravi Prakash, he kept learning new tricks of the crime world. Sanjeev, becoming famous in the world of crime, joined the Nazim gang of Haridwar. After that he started working for a gangster named Satendra Barnala. Sanjeev, who used to work for others, was now in a mood to take a big leap, so Sanjeev formed his own gang. In this, dreaded criminals like Ravi Prakash, Jitendra alias Bhuri and Ramesh Thakur joined him.
The leader who saved Mayawati’s life was killed
The picture is of the day of the guest house incident. It is said that when Mayawati got trapped in the guest house, her life was saved by Brahmadutt Dwivedi.
In the 90s, mafias like Mukhtar Ansari, Brajesh Singh, Munna Bajrangi, Badan Singh Baddo and Bhola Jat dominated from eastern Uttar Pradesh to western UP. At that time, Sanjeev Jeeva was trying to attract the attention of the people towards himself by operating his small gang. For this, he did such a thing which created an earthquake in Uttar Pradesh. Sanjeev Jeeva killed that BJP leader who had once saved former Chief Minister Mayawati’s life.
Year 1997. Date 10 February. Rising BJP leader and MLA Brahmadutt Dwivedi had gone to attend a Tilak ceremony, a few blocks away from his home in Kotwali town of Farrukhabad. While returning, as soon as he started sitting in his car, Sanjeev Jeeva along with his associates Ramesh Thakur and Balwinder Singh fired indiscriminately at him and killed him. Brahmadutt Dwivedi’s gunner BK Tiwari was killed in this attack. The political stature of Brahmadatta who was murdered by Sanjeev Jeeva can be gauged from the fact that veteran leaders like Atal Bihari Vajpayee, Lal Krishna Advani attended his last visit.
The picture is of the last journey of Brahmadutt Dwivedi whose murder has been accused of Sanjeev Jeeva.
In fact, Mayawati was locked in room number 1 during the guest house scandal in June 1995, Mayawati called many people for help from the guest house room. But no one helped, then Brahmadutt reached the guest house and held a front outside Mayawati’s room till the police arrived. After this, Mayawati started considering him as her brother.
After the murder of Brahmadutt Dwivedi, Sanjeev Jeeva was caught in the eyes of every mafia. Be it Mukhtar or Brajesh Singh, everyone wanted to include Sanjeev Jeeva in their gang. But Jeeva’s role model was Munna Bajrangi. That Munna Bajrangi whose terror made the entire Purvanchal tremble. Sanjeev Jeeva’s dream of becoming the uncrowned underworld king comes closer to fulfillment as Mukhtar Ansari’s most trusted sharpshooter joins hands with Munna Bajrangi. At the behest of Sanjeev Jeeva Munna Bajrangi started executing one murder after another. Sanjeev Jeeva had now become one of the special shooters of Mukhtar Ansari.
400 bullets fired in BJP MLA Krishnanand Rai’s chest
This is BJP MLA Krishnanand Rai. In whose murder the names of Mukhtar Ansari, Munna Bajrangi and Sanjeev Jeeva came to the fore. However, later all the accused were acquitted by the court.
Year 2005 Uttar Pradesh was now about to witness an incident that shook the entire nation. In the state where a BJP MLA was riddled with bullets 10 years ago, it was once again going to rain bullets. Not 10, not 100 but 400 rounds of bullets were going to be fired and the one who was going to execute this incident was the people’s doctor Sanjeev Jiva.
25 November 2005. There is a place in Mau, Mohammadabad. BJP MLA of this area Krishnanand Rai was returning after inaugurating the cricket tournament. Just then a car stops in front of their car. 8 people get down from the car and shower bullets from AK47. There is not a single part of Krishnanand Rai’s body left where bullets were not fired. It is said that 400 rounds of bullets were fired to kill Krishnanand Rai. In this shootout, 7 people including MLA Krishnanand were killed. The names of Mukhtar Ansari, Munna Bajrangi and Sanjeev Jeeva came to the fore in this brutal massacre. However, later all the accused were acquitted by the court.
Sanjeev lived a life of luxury after going to jail
Sanjeev Jiva was arrested after the murder of BJP MLA Krishnanand Rai. The UP police and the common people felt that now the crackling of bullets would end in UP. But Sanjeev Jeeva had made the jail his favorite place. There used to be a regular court of Jeeva in Barabanki Jail. From jail itself, Sanjeev used to take supari from people and get them killed by his shooter.
In the year 2013, Sanjeev Jeeva was lodged in Barabanki jail. However, for some reason or the other, Sanjeev stayed more in the jail hospital than in the barrack. At that time, a newspaper sting operation revealed that the ward where Sanjeev Jeeva was admitted without any disease had all the luxuries that people keep in their luxurious homes. Not only this, dozens of people used to come to meet him everyday in his court. It was said that he used to call traders to jail for demanding extortion.
The target was someone else, but someone else was murdered In the year 2017, Haridwar’s blanket businessman Abhishek Dixit was shot dead by three miscreants while going from home to his shop. The strings of this murder case were also linked to Sanjeev Jeeva. This sensational murder case created a stir in UP and Uttarakhand. When the shooter who killed the businessman was arrested, it came to know that the murder was carried out at the behest of Sanjeev Jeeva. Not only this, Abhishek Dixit who was killed was also by mistake. The target was someone else but someone else was killed.
In fact, on March 6, 2017, as usual in the evening, Amit Dixit, a blanket trader living in Nirmala Cantonment, Haridwar, was going from home to the shop. That’s why shooter Mujahid alias Khan, shooter Shahrukh alias Pathan and Vivek Thakur alias Vicky showered bullets on Abhishek. In which Abhishek Dixit died on the spot. Uttarakhand police arrested all the shooters within a week. What was revealed after the arrest was shocking. The shooters told that Sanjeev Jeeva, lodged in Mainpuri jail, had told them to kill.
When Haridwar police interrogated Jeeva, he told that Kankhal’s property dealer Subhash Saini was to be murdered but his henchmen killed Abhishek. Jeeva said that she is saddened by Abhishek’s death.
Gangster Jeeva’s name also figured in selling AK-47
In the year 2022, Anil alias Pintu, a resident of Hadauli Majra village of Bhaurakalan, was arrested. AK-47 was recovered from him. Jeeva’s name came to the fore even after selling these weapons.
Sanjeev was scared after the murder of Munna Bajrangi
After a face-off with the police, Sanjeev Jeeva finally got caught by the police. The court sentenced him to life imprisonment for the murder of BJP MLA Brahma Dutt. Presently Sanjeev Jeeva was serving life sentence in Lucknow Central Jail.
Sanjeev was murdered in the Kaiserbagh court premises at around 4 pm today.
After the murder of Munna Bajrangi in Baghpat, Sanjeev Jeeva, who used to scare others with his terror, started getting scared himself. In the court, his wife had also pleaded for Jeeva’s safety. Eventually this fear of Sanjeev’s wife proved to be true. On March 7, Sanjeev, who had come for a court hearing, was murdered in broad daylight.
