Senior Samajwadi Party leader Mohd Azam Khan, his wife Tazeen Fatima and son Abdullah have been registered with a fraud case in Rampur after a BJP leader filed a complaint with the Home Secretary in December. The case was registered in the Ganj Police Station.
Khan, who has been a senior cabinet minister in all previous Samajwadi Party governments, along with his wife and son, have been charged with keeping two birth certificates, one from Lucknow and the other from Rampur.
The family has also been accused of keeping two passports. The complaint was filed by BJP leader Akaash Kumar Saxena, who had alleged deep-rooted conspiracy by the minister in getting the birth certificates to procure two passports.
He had also submitted details collected by him through RTI, after which principal secretary (Home) Arvind Kumar forwarded the SP Rampur to investigate the matter.
