Lucknow: Another case of murder has been registered against the mafia, whom the Congress government had tried hard to stop in Punjab, as well as giving him VVIP treatment in jail. In fact, a new case of murder has been registered against Mukhtar Ansari, former MLA of Mau and gangster imprisoned in Banda Jail in Mohammadabad Kotwali of Ghazipur. This case is related to the Usri Chatti incident. The father of the deceased Manoj Rai has registered this case. Local police sources have said that a case has been registered on the orders of ADG Law and Order. Mukhtar Ansari, a mafia who has a considerable political hold, has 52 cases registered in Uttar Pradesh alone, which include serious cases like murder, extortion, and kidnapping.

Shailendra Rai, the father of the deceased Manoj Rai, is a resident of Buxar (Bihar). In his complaint, he accused the then Mau MLA Mukhtar Ansari of killing Manoj Rai on July 15, 2001. In the initial investigation in 2001, the murder of Manoj Rai was also confirmed due to bullet injury, but this case was later suppressed in the files. In fact, on July 15, 2001, in the Usri massacre, the then MLA Mukhtar Ansari's convoy was fired upon and one of his supporters, including his official gunner, lost his life, and 8 to 9 people were injured, while a third person Manoj Rai also died in the same incident.

The murder case of the same Manoj Rai has been registered under Sections 302, 147, 148, and 149 of IPC in Mohammadabad Kotwali after 21 years. However, Manoj's father Shailendra has been giving his complaints to the police through IGRS and Manoj Rai's murder was also mentioned in the discussion of the Usri Chatti murder case.  

Mukhtar Ansari and Congress:-

Mukhtar Ansari has old family relations with Congress, and the gangster's grandfather Mukhtar Ahmed Ansari has been the National President of Congress. And Hamid Ansari, who was the Vice President of the country for 10 years, is Mukhtar's uncle. Hamid Ansari was also accused of putting the lives of RAW agents in danger when he was the Vice President. The result of these relations with the Congress was that the Congress government of Punjab made every possible effort to keep Mukhtar in its jail. It was later revealed that the Punjab government was giving VIP treatment to Mukhtar in jail. Harjot Singh Bains, a minister in the AAP government in Punjab, had claimed that the previous Congress government gave VIP treatment to Mukhtar in jail and spent Rs 55 lakh on amenities. Mukhtar remained locked in Punjab jail for 2 years and 3 months. Later, on the orders of the court, Mukhtar was shifted to Banda Jail in UP.
