IRCTC scam: Bail granted to Lalu’s wife Rabri, son Tejashwi

TIL Desk/National/New Delhi/ A Delhi court on Saturday granted bail to Rashtriya Janata Dal chief Lalu Prasad’s wife Rabri Devi and son Tejashwi Yadav and others in an Indian Railway Catering and Tourism Corporation scam case lodged by the Central Bureau of Investigation.

Special Judge Arun Bhardwaj also granted interim bail till November 19 to Rabri Devi, Tejashwi Yadav and others in a money laundering case filed by Enforcement Directorate in relation to the alleged scam.

The court also directed Prasad to be produced through video conference on November 19 in the cases filed by the Central Bureau of Investigation and the ED. The court granted bail to Rabri and Tejashwi Yadav in the CBI case on a personal bond of Rs 1 lakh and a surety of a like amount.

However, the regular bail was not granted to the accused in the ED case after the agency sought time to file a reply to the bail applications. The court had earlier granted interim bail to the accused, except Prasad, on August 31 till Saturday in the case filed by the CBI after the agency had sought time to file a reply on Saturday.
