About David Ochterlony Dyce Sombre

David Ochterlony Dyce Sombre, also known as D. O. Dyce Sombre and David Dyce Sombre, was an Anglo-Indian politician recognized to be the first person of Indian descent to be elected to the British Parliament. He stood as a candidate in the constituency of Sudbury and became its MP in July 1841, but was removed from his seat in April 1842 after being found guilty of "gross, systematic and extensive bribery" during his campaign.
