Noida Police Tuesday lodged an FIR against Aam Aadmi Party`s Delhi MLA Amanatullah Khan and his son on charges of assault and criminal intimidation, officials said. Khan, an MLA from the Okhla constituency, claimed it was a "one-sided" action by the police and that he has been wrongly framed in the case. The AAP leader and his son were booked after they allegedly assaulted and threatened employees of a filling station in Sector 95 here following an altercation, the officials said. The FIR was lodged on the complaint of a filling station employee who claimed that Khan`s son had come there in the morning to get fuel for his car but jumped the queue. Khan`s son Anas Ahmed was mentioned as "unidentified" in the FIR. He allegedly insisted that the salesman should first fill the fuel in his vehicle and assaulted the salesperson.
Noida Additional DCP Manish Kumar Mishra said the FIR has been lodged at the Phase 1 police station against the AAP MLA, his son and some unidentified persons. Khan, however, told PTI that his son, a law student, was going to appear in an exam when the incident happened. "The staff of the petrol pump misbehaved with my son and also manhandled him. Now, they are using incomplete CCTV footage to malign my image and frame me in a one-sided police action," he alleged. Khan also claimed that after getting a call from the local police, he reached the petrol pump, talked to its owner and the whole thing was "settled". But later he learnt that he was also "implicated" in the case by the police, Khan said. Complainant Vinod Kumar Singh alleged that the incident took place at 9.27 am when Khan`s son arrived there in his car and asked the salesman to put fuel in his car first instead of following the queue.
