The graveyard at Kali Bagh in Mohammadabad Yusufpur, Ghazipur, has prepared Mukhtar Ansari’s grave for his burial. He will be laid to rest near his parents, uncle, and aunt, whose graves are also located in the same graveyard. Mukhtar Ansari’s son Umar Ansari has raised questions about the doctors who conducted the post-mortem after it was completed. Umar Ansari wrote a letter demanding that the post-mortem of his father Mukhtar Ansari be conducted by the doctors at Delhi AIIMS. Additionally, the Allahabad High Court rejected Mukhtar Ansari’s elder son Abbas Ansari’s petition for parole, prompting him to plan an appeal to the Supreme Court. Now, the focus is on determining when Mukhtar Ansari will be buried.
