Gangster-turned-politician Atiq Ahmed on Wednesday was brought to the Naini Central Jail here from Sabarmati prison in Gujarat, officials said.
Ahmed reached the jail at around 6 pm, they said.
He will be produced in the court of Chief Judicial Magistrate Dinesh Gautam on Thursday in the Umesh Pal murder case.
"Due to delay, he could not be produced in the court today," a senior police official said.
Ahmed's brother Khalid Azim alias Ashraf, who is brought to Naini jail from Bareilly, will also be produced in the court in the same case.
