Sambhal MP Ziaur Rahman Barq Faces New Trouble: Complaint Filed Over Fatal Road Accident

Sambhal MP

Sambhal, Uttar Pradesh: Samajwadi Party (SP) MP from Sambhal, Ziaur Rahman Barq, finds himself embroiled in another controversy, with a new complaint alleging his involvement in a fatal road accident. This comes on the heels of an FIR filed earlier accusing him of inciting violence in Sambhal.

Allegations Over Road Accident

The complaint relates to a road accident that occurred on June 24 in Sambhal’s Nakhasa police station area, where a Scorpio vehicle collided with a motorcycle, resulting in the death of 28-year-old Gaurav. The deceased's father, Samar Pal, has now alleged that Barq himself was driving the vehicle at the time of the accident, accompanied by his sister.

According to Sambhal SP Krishna Kumar Bishnoi, the matter is under investigation. The case, which was initially registered against an unidentified driver, will now be probed further following the allegations against the MP. "The complaint has been received, and ASP Sambhal Shri Chand has been assigned to investigate. Action will be taken based on the findings," said SP Bishnoi.

Background: FIR for Inciting Violence

This latest allegation compounds Barq’s troubles, as he was previously named in seven FIRs related to the Sambhal violence. The clashes, which occurred during protests against the survey of Shahi Jama Masjid, resulted in the deaths of four people and injuries to several others, including police officers and administrative personnel. Barq and local SP MLA Iqbal Mahmood's son Sohail Iqbal were accused of inciting the violence.

In the road accident case, the victim's father has claimed that the Scorpio, reportedly driven by Barq, struck his son’s motorcycle, leading to Gaurav’s death. At the time, a case was registered against an unidentified driver. However, the family’s recent statement pointing to Barq has escalated the matter.

Legal and Political Ramifications

If the investigation substantiates the claims, Barq could face serious legal consequences, adding to the already significant challenges stemming from the Sambhal violence case. The allegations have also ignited political reactions, with opponents questioning the accountability of the MP and the SP leadership.

Next Steps

The police have assured a thorough investigation into both the accident and the violence allegations. Meanwhile, the controversies surrounding Barq could have far-reaching implications for his political career and the reputation of the Samajwadi Party in the region.
