The Bahujan Samaj Party has expelled jailed legislator Mukhtar Ansari and his brother Afzal Ansari, a former MP, from the party after having discovered that Mukhtar is still involved in criminal activities.
The party has also decided “not to take support” of another Ansari brother, Sibgatullah Ansari, who is a legislator from Muhammadabad constituency in Ghazipur district.
In a statement issued by the BSP on Friday, party spokesperson said the Ansari brothers, who had joined the party in 2007, have been expelled with immediate effect.
Mukhtar, who is facing 30 criminal cases including those of murder and kidnapping, is an accused in the case involving the murder of BJP MLA Krishnanand Rai.
