Azam Khan's sister detained

Samajwadi Party MP Mohd Azam Khan's sister Nikhat Aflaq was on Friday detained by the police.

"The police came in four-five jeeps and took my sister away. We were not told the reason for her arrest or detention. When I reached there, the food was strewn all over the place. They did not even allow her to wear her burqa. She is a senior citizen – over 70 years old -- and does not keep well," said her sister Nasreen

Rampur Superintendent of Police Ajay Pal Sharma said: "Nikhat Aflaq is the treasurer of the Jauhar Trust and we needed to question her about the complaints filed by farmers about land grabbing by Azam Khan. We are taking care of all human rights and only want information from her."IANS
