New Delhi: Gangster-turned-don Mukhtar Ansari’s son Abbas Ansari was booked today for issuing ‘open threats’ to government officials at a public gathering.
Abbas Ansari, contesting the UP elections on Suheldev Bhartiya Samaj Party (SBSP) ticket, said at the poll rally in Mau that once Samajwadi Party-led govt comes to power, he will do first hisab-kisab with them before any transfer posting. He said that he has spoken to Akhilesh Yadav about this and asked him not to allow any transfer unless they have ‘paid back for their sins/malpractices’.
“I’ve told SP chief Akhilesh Yadav that no transfers or postings will happen for six months. First, ‘hisab kitab’ will happen with them. Only then their transfer certificates would be stamped,” he said on Thursday.
