Influence (Clout) earned
- His clout with law managers (police etc)
- Shekhar was provided with two police gunners till he was eventually arrested on December 25.
- His police gunners, who were reportedly absconding since the murder of PWD executive engineer Manoj Kumar Gupta, were arrested by the Auraiya police on Monday.
- Shekhar Tiwari had sought enhancement of his personal security on grounds of increasing threat perception to his life. Before the final approval, home secretary (Police Anubhag—2) sent a letter to the state intelligence department (vide number 167/08 dated May 5, 2008) seeking comments on a 20-point questionnaire to decide the level of threat and advise the range of enhancement of Shekhar’s security, if at all.
- Sources said that the process was in its final stages of approval when Shekhar landed in the murder case and was arrested.
