September 24, 2025

Samajwadi Party founding member and former Uttar Pradesh minister Azam Khan was on Tuesday released on bail from Sitapur jail after spending close to two years behind bars, with party president Akhilesh Yadav saying the veteran leader has “finally got justice”.

Khan's sons —Adeeb and Abdullah —along with several senior party leaders, including Moradabad lawmaker Ruchi Vira, and hundreds of his supporters and SP workers welcomed the 77-year-old former MP outside the jail, where he was languishing since October 2023. Khan's release was delayed and he walked out of jail around 12.20 pm instead of the scheduled 7am.
