Split in CBI over Lalu Prasad Yadav case

2019-03-01 0

The CBI chief and the agency's director of prosecution (DoP) have locked horns over dropping some crucial fodder scam charges against RJD chief Lalu Prasad Yadav.

CBI sources said director Ranjit Sinha favours dropping the charges while DoP O P Verma does not agree. The matter is being sent to Attorney General G E Vahanvati for his opinion.

The controversy is related to Lalu's plea in the special court to set aside proceedings against him in some fodder scam cases on the ground that he has already been prosecuted for the same charges in a different FIR.

The cases relate to illegal withdrawal of money from government treasuries on the basis of fake supply orders.
