Akhilesh and party MLAs Ashu Malik, Zia-ur-Rehman, Shafiq-ur-Rehman Barq, Kamaal Akhtar, Zahid Beg and a few others were among those who sported black sherwanis apparently also to express solidarity with Azam Khan and in criticism of the government for “injustices and unfair action” against Azam and his family. Azam and his family members have over 80 cases against them in Rampur.

Also, the former MLA and his son Abdullah both had their assembly memberships terminated following their conviction by the MP/MLA court. Azam was Rampur Sadar MLA and Abdullah was Suar (Rampur) MLA.
