Identity: the queue line's bearer is the Indian Foreign Service officer and Kishanganj MP (1935–2017) — not Mohammed Shahabuddin or Shahabuddin Ahmed, the Bangladeshi presidents who already hold records, and not the Indian cricketer of the same name. Existence checks by name fragments (shahabuddin) and by QID across data/person on origin/main found no prior record for him. The queue's years (1935–2017) are confirmed to the day. Relations written: died_in Delhi only — Ranchi and Gaya have no place entities, and his daughter Parveen Amanullah has no person record, so no family edge is written.",
