CBI conducts raid at official residence of former Bihar CM Rabari Devi in Patna
Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI) today conducting raid at official residence of former Bihar Chief Minister Rabari Devi in Patna.
His son and Minister of Nitish Kumar’s cabinet Tej Pratap Yadav was also present in the house. Sources said the CBI is interrogating Rabari Devi in land-for-job scam case.
It may be noted that a Delhi court on 27th of last month issued summons to former Union railway minister and RJD chief Lalu Prasad, his wife and former Bihar chief minister Rabri Devi, daughter Misa Bharti and 13 others in connection with an alleged land-for-jobs scam.
Rouse Avenue Court special judge Geetanjali Goel had summoned the three leaders on March 15 after taking cognizance of a charge sheet filed in October last year by the Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI) which is probing the case.
In its charge sheet on October 10, CBI named the above 16 people in the case and accused them of taking land from 12 candidates in return for jobs in the Railways, during Lalu’s stint as railway minister between 2004 and 2009.
