The Supreme Court has dismissed a petition filed by Umar Ansari, son of Mukhtar Ansari, alleging that his father was poisoned to death. The Supreme Court stated that the allegations were completely baseless.

It is noteworthy that Umar Ansari had filed a petition in the Supreme Court demanding an FIR be registered for Mukhtar Ansari’s death in jail and the formation of an SIT to investigate the death.
In the previous hearing, Kapil Sibal, the lawyer representing Umar Ansari, argued that a judicial inquiry into Mukhtar Ansari’s death had been conducted, but its report was yet to be received. Following this, the Supreme Court ordered the Uttar Pradesh government to provide the judicial inquiry report to Umar Ansari.
Mukhtar Ansari, who was imprisoned in Banda Jail, died in jail on 28 March 2024. The post-mortem report attributed the cause of death to heart failure. However, Mukhtar Ansari’s family alleged that he was poisoned to death in jail.
