    Another of those charged is the nephew of Conservative Cllr Aziz, and shares a house with him. Cllr Aziz has so far escaped criticism within the local Tory party, having been reselected to contest the elections.

    Since he is one of 5 of Eshaq’s team who have not been expelled, and as the Judge stated that 3 of them were fraudulent (but it could not be shown exactlt which 3), this has the potential to run and run.

  • Interestingly,three Conservative candidates in the Slough Council Elections reside in the same road (Wellesley Road) in Central Ward. One being Cllr Aziz. The others being Sumander Khan (defeated in 2006 as sitting councillor in Central Ward) and Muhammad Umar Majeed standing in lieu of the disgraced and disbarred Eshaq Khan.It makes you think !

  • well i dont get anything as maybe am not really from england as i live in china n i was just browsing through anyways i just want to know what will happen to all these 5 peoples who are also charged with befraud case?
