Fourth Fodder scam: CBI Court defers verdict to March 19

Ranchi's special Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI) court has deferred the verdict in the fourth fodder scam involving Rashtriya Janata Dal chief Lalu Yadav to March 19.

Earlier March 15 had been fixed for the verdict. A special CBI court in Ranchi heard the case the same day and reserved the order.

Accepting Lalu Prasad Yadav's plea, Ranchi's CBI Special Court on March 16



issued summons to then Accountant General PK Mukhopadhyay and two other officers in the case.

 

"We filed a petition on Monday asking the Attorney General office officials to be made accused in the case too. Both parties argued in the Court. The order has been reserved and it will be pronounced tomorrow. After that the date of judgement will be fixed," Lalu Yadav's lawyer Prabhat Kumar had said.
