Lucknow's famous Hazratganj market is gently slumbering to a halt: The sari shops have long pulled down their shutters, the roadside ice-cream stalls are running out of chocobars, and the odd middle-aged gent is racing towards his favourite paan shop for a desperate late-night kick. Five kilometres away, in a fortified four-acre bungalow in the cantonment area, Raghuraj Pratap Singh, 44, sees off his last batch of sympathetic visitors, sends his sten gun-toting bodyguard home, takes a sleeping pill, and goes to bed. If you've not heard of Raghuraj, alias Raja Bhaiyya, you would never have heard of Kunda. If you've not heard of Kunda, you would never understand what makes this sleepy little town in Uttar Pradesh's Pratapgarh district, a layaway between Lucknow and Allahabad where no traveller ever stops, the setting for the latest incident of violence that has shaken the 12-month-old Akhilesh Yadav government. Asked to resign as food and civil supplies minister by Akhilesh, who had propped him last year amidst criticism, Raja Bhaiyya has been talking about his innocence to anyone who will lend an ear. 'If I didn't like the officer, I would have easily got him transferred instead of getting him murdered,' he said on TV, to newspapers, and to members of the Samajwadi Party (SP), which he had aligned with after being elected as an independent MLA. In all fairness, the charge against him-of criminal conspiracy in the killing of Zia-ul Haq, the circle officer of his hometown of Kunda-doesn't seem to fly, at least at first glance. Serial silat mandarin jadul. His detractors from other political parties have not been able to prove a direct link, and informal talk even in the Uttar Pradesh secretariat annexe's revered Pancham Tal (fifth floor, where the chief minister sits) is that Raja Bhaiyya will eventually get a clean chit. But guilty or not, the incident is symptomatic of the deteriorating law and order situation in Uttar Pradesh, and of the kill-or-be-killed culture brewing in places such as Kunda, where leaders with rich criminal pasts rule the roost. On March 2, Nanhe Yadav, a local SP leader and newly elected gram pradhan of Ballipur village in Pratapgarh, was sitting at a tea shop when he was gunned down allegedly by a rival group. Enraged, Nanhe's supporters congregated as a torch-bearing mob that began destroying public property, started pelting stones, and attacked a local police station. As the situation turned from bad to worse, Deputy Superintendent of Police Zia-ul-Haq, 32, rushed to the spot with a small group of officers. The altercation that ensued led to cross fire in which Nanhe Yadav's brother Suresh also lost his life. As the crowd got agitated, eyewitnesses say that some of the police officers fled the scene, leaving Zia-ul-Haq behind. The crowd first beat him with sticks and rods, and then shot him in the back as he tried to escape. The first FIR filed that evening had no mention of Raja Bhaiyya. But Zia-ul-Haq's wife, Parveen Azad, 24, alleged in a written complaint on March 3 that her husband had been under huge pressure ever since he had taken up the post 10 months ago, and that he had been the victim of a criminal conspiracy hatched by Raja Bhaiyya. Supporters genuflect to SP's Raja Bhaiya.A second FIR, reportedly after a go-ahead from Akhilesh, named Raja Bhaiyya, his driver Guddu Singh, his associates Rohit Singh and Hari Om Srivastava, as well as district panchayat chairman Gulshan Yadav. Though he has been charged, Raja Bhaiyya has not been arrested because the matter has been referred to CBI and Akhilesh has said it is up to them. There are eight previous charges against Raja Bhaiyya, including serious ones such as murder, abduction and land grabbing. Many criminal cases against him were withdrawn by the SP government between 2003 and 2007. The facts of the latest case have made it a highly divisive issue in the state, with four principal theories doing the rounds: One, Raja Bhaiyya is guilty; two, he has no direct connection with this case but the mob that killed Zia-ul-Haq believed they enjoyed his tacit approval; three, his inclusion in the FIR was planned by SP because news had spread that he was cozying up to new BJP President Rajnath Singh; four, the slain officer's wife is being tutored by a senior Bahujan Samaj Party (BSP) leader who is a distant relative of the Haq family. BORN RICH, LIVING WILD The alleged involvement and resignation of Raja Bhaiyya has once again put the spotlight on a chequered political career, a fascinating lifestyle, and a town where locals proudly proclaim, ' Raja Bhaiyya ke ishare ke bina ek patta bhi nahi hilta (Not even a leaf can flutter without Raja Bhaiyya's permission).' Raja Bhaiyya was born in 1969 in the Bhadri family of local Thakur rulers.
