"Ansari was brought from Ropar jail at about 4:50 am to Banda prison gate by a special team and he finally got entry at 5 am. His belongings were checked and no objectionable items were found. Banda Medical college doctors did his check-up and found no immediate health issues," UP government said.
Gangster-turned-politician Mukhtar Ansari's brother has alleged inhuman treatment being given to the jailed MLA while being transferred to Uttar Pradesh's Banda jail from Punjab, saying it could have been better had he been shot dead at a road crossing. The Uttar Pradesh government, however, said a team of doctors of the Banda Medical College examined Mukhtar Ansari at the jail and no "immediate" health issues were found by it. "Inhuman treatment was meted to Mukhtar while being shifted from Punjab to Banda jail. In over 15 hours journey, he was not given water and food on the way and was also denied medical aid. Due to this, he became unwell and reached Banda jail in a semi-unconscious state," Afzal Ansari, the BSP MP from Ghazipur, told news agency Press Trust of India. Afzal Ansari, however, did not elaborate on how he got to know about the alleged treatment meted out to his brother during his transfer to UP's Banda jail.
