Mohammad Shahabuddin की पत्नी Hena Shahab और Ajay Singh की पत्नी Kavita Singh Siwan में आमने-सामने
Hena Shahab (b. 1976) is the wife of one of India's most notorious criminal-politician, Mohammad Shahabuddin, and a politician from the Rashtriya Janata Dal of Laloo Prasad. She has two daughters- Hera Shahab and Tasneem Shahab. Elder daughter Hera Shahab (born 1996) is a student of medicine in Hyderabad. His son Osama is doing LLB in England, while youngest daughter Tasneem has completed her schooling. His son, Osama Shahab is accused in witness murder case. Her name is sometimes also spelled as Heena Shahab.
In the Indian general elections, 2009, her husband was in jail serving life-imprisonment for murder, and not allowed to contest the elections. Shahab, who until then had led a devout burqa-clad life, contested from her husband's Siwan (Lok Sabha constituency) as a RJD party candidate, but lost by 63,000 votes to her husband's longtime opponent Om Prakash Yadav. Yadav, who was once been beaten up publicly by Shahabuddin, and had nine of his workers murdered after the 2004 elections, won despite being an Independent candidate. In the elections, she remained indoors and did "not even come out to campaign let alone address the electorate", but managed to poll 172,000 (29%) of the votes.
In 2010, Laloo Prasad continued to promote Heena and Sahabuddin in his party.
