Lalu Prasad, Rabri Devi To Appear Before Delhi Court In Land-For-Job Scam Case
In a case involving the alleged land-for-job scam, former railway minister Lalu Prasad, his wife and former Bihar chief minister Rabri Devi, and 14 others are likely to appear in court on Wednesday, reported news agency PTI.
The case involves alleged railway appointments in exchange for land parcels given to or sold to Prasad's family while he was minister of railways from 2004 to 2009.
In its charge sheet, the CBI claimed that irregular appointments were made in the railways, in violation of Indian Railways' recruitment guidelines.
It was alleged that the candidates, either directly or through their immediate relatives and family members, sold land to the RJD chief Prasad's family, who was then railway minister, at prices as low as one-fifth of market rates.
On February 27, special judge Geetanjali Goel sent out summonses to the accused, including Prasad's daughter Misa Bharti, and told them to show up in court on March 15.
