Jailed gangster, and five-time former MLA, Mukhtar Ansari was awarded life sentence on Monday for the murder of Varanasi strongman Awadhesh Rai 32 years ago. A Varanasi MP-MLA court also slapped Rs 1.2 lakh penalty on him. This is Ansari's fifth conviction in Uttar Pradesh since September 2022 and sixth overall. A Delhi court had sentenced him under Tada in 2003. But this is for the first time that Mukhtar, who faces 61 criminal cases, has been convicted for a murder.
