The key accused in the Lakhimpur Kheri case and the son of Union Minister Ajay Misra Teni, Ashish Misra - being escorted by nearly a dozen policemen, well-groomed and in all-whites, seemed unfazed despite the Supreme Court sending him back to jail.
This man may have driven an SUV on a group of protesting farmers and killed a few. But his unperturbed walk to a court, with a calm face and a spring in his steps, is now viral on social media.

Twirling his moustache, Mishra walked past journalists, a defiant look on his face.
On Monday, Misra’s associates were denied bail by the Allahabad High Court. The Samyukta Kisan Morcha welcomed the decision.
Eight people, including four farmers, were killed in the violence that erupted during the farmers' protest in Uttar Pradesh’s Lakhimpur Kheri last year ahead of a visit by UP Deputy Chief Minister Keshav Prasad Maurya. While the farmers' outfits alleged that Ashish Misra was inside a car that ran over the farmers, the Union minister's son denied the claims.
