A Division Bench of the Supreme Court of India on Tuesday reserved the judgement in a challenge against a decision of the Allahabad High Court to disqualify Rampur MLA Mohd. Khan, along with his father, Azam Khan, and his mother, Tazeen Fatma, were also arrested in February 2020 on several charges, including cheating, for allegedly fabricating his birth certificate.
