The sudden demise of jailed gangster-turned-politician Mukhtar Ansari in a hospital in Banda, Uttar Pradesh, has sparked controversy as his family members allege that he was subjected to “slow poisoning” while in jail. Ansari’s brother, Afzal, an MP from Ghazipur, claimed that Mukhtar had informed him about being given poisonous substances in his food, leading to deteriorating health.

Afzal Ansari stated to the media, “Mukhtar said that he was given a poisonous substance in food in jail. This happened for the second time.” He added that similar incidents had occurred around 40 days ago and more recently on March 19 and March 22. However, these allegations have been denied by the jail authorities.

Family members, including Umar Ansari, Mukhtar Ansari’s son, have echoed these claims, expressing concern over the circumstances leading to his death. Umar Ansari highlighted that they were not informed by the administration and came to know about the situation through the media. He mentioned being denied access to meet his father, further fueling suspicions.

Following Mukhtar Ansari’s death, his body was sent for post-mortem at Banda Medical College Hospital. The investigation into the cause of death is ongoing.

Mukhtar Ansari, a prominent figure in Uttar Pradesh politics, had a controversial history with over 60 criminal cases pending against him. He was a five-time MLA from Mau Sadar seat, representing various political parties. In recent years, he faced multiple convictions and sentences, including a 10-year imprisonment for the murder of BJP MLA Krishnanand Rai and a life sentence in a case related to forged documents for obtaining an arms license.

Ansari’s death and the allegations of poisoning have raised questions about the treatment of prisoners and the circumstances leading to such incidents within the prison system. The case has drawn attention to issues of security and accountability in correctional facilities, prompting calls for a thorough investigation into the matter.
