As UP cops have reached Punjab’s Rupnagar district to take over custody of BSP MLA Mukhtar Ansari and shift him to Uttar Pradesh’s Banda Jail, the family members of Ansari say that they fear for his life in UP’s jail.

Worried over a fake encounter by UP police, MLA Mukhtar Ansari's wife has reportedly filed a petition in Supreme Court today seeking security and protection for her husband while he is being shifted from Punjab's Ropar jail to Banda jail in Uttar Pradesh.

Around seven to eight vehicles of the Uttar Pradesh Police reached the Rupnagar District Police Lines around 4:30 am today, and are now likely to return with Ansari to UP, late on Tuesday night.

Mukhtar Ansari's brother and BSP MP from Ghazipur, Afzal Ansari, also expressed apprehension that a 'conspiracy' may be hatched against him in the UP jail.

"The Ansari family is worried following the media reports and statements made by the BJP leaders. We have approached the judiciary on the issue of security for Mukhtar. When a problem is being created by the state government, then there is no option except seeking the shelter of the judiciary. Justice is still alive in the country. I am confident that justice will prevail and Mukhtar will be proved innocent in all cases," he said.

His wife Afshan Ansari had earlier written to the President of India, seeking his intervention in the matter.

Meanwhile, family sources said that they planned to take a house on rent in Banda to ensure that they remain close to Ansari.

It may be recalled that Mukhtar and his wife Afsha had suffered a heart attack in the Banda jail in 2018. The two reportedly fell unconscious after consuming tea inside the jail. Afsha had gone to meet her husband. After this, Mukhtar was shifted to Ropar jail.
