One Ankit Das, who is said to be a close friend of Ashish Mishra, appeared before the SIT at the crime branch office in Lakhimpur earlier in the day.
The investigators had summoned Das for questioning in connection with the October 3 violence that had left eight people, including four farmers, dead.
Das is the nephew of former minister Akhilesh Das and the black SUV which allegedly knocked down the four farmers is said to be owned by him.
At around 11 AM, Das along with a team of lawyers arrived at the crime branch office in the reserved police lines area, the police said.
On Tuesday, Das and one other identified as Latif had moved an application for surrender before the chief judicial magistrate.
