A court on Wednesday convicted Samajwadi Party leader Azam Khan, his wife Tazeen Fatima and son Abdullah Azam in a 2019 fake birth certificate case, and awarded them a seven-year jail term.

"After the court verdict, the trio was taken into judicial custody and will be sent to the jail from the court itself," said Arun Parkash Saxena, a former District Government Counsel, who represented the prosecution.
