Abdullah Azam Khan

A local RSS leader Aakash Saxena filed a complaint alleging Abdullah had obtained multiple birth certificate to increase his age to the eligibility limit for contesting state assembly elections. On basis of this complaint, upon investigation by the Rampur district magistrate found Abdullah guilty of faking his date of birth to contest polls. The report was sent to the election commission.[6] In January 2019, Saxena further lodged a case of forgery in the birth certificate case at a local police station. In March 2019, UP high court stayed the arrest of Abdullah and his father Azam Khan and mother Tazeen Fatma until the probe was completed by the police.[7]

In December 2019, the Allahabad high court annulled the election of Abdullah on account of his ineligibility to contest polls as MLA.[8] Following this he moved an appeal against the order in the Supreme court. However, in January 2020 the court declared the three Abdullah and his parents to be absconders for failing to appear in the court during the hearings in the case. On 26th February 2020, he was sent to the jail along with his father and mother for fake birth certificate.[9]

On 9 September 2019, Abdullah along with his mother Tazeen Fatma got a notice for allegedly grabbing land of farmers to build Mohammad Ali Jauhar University.[10] Abdullah was also booked under section 447 and 184 for allegedly encroaching the government land for his Humasafar Resort.[11]
