Senior Samajwadi Party leader Azam Khan walked out of the Sitapur jail today after 23 months. He was scheduled to be released early Tuesday morning, but it was delayed due to impending court proceedings.

Azam Khan was acquitted by a special MP-MLA court last week in a 17-year-old case related to road blockade and damage to public property. The case dates back to 2008, when Khan allegedly created disturbance near Chhajlet police station after police removed the hooter from his car. He, along with his supporters, blocked the road causing a traffic jam. The protest turned violent and some electric poles were damaged, leading to the registration of a case against Khan.
