Former Bihar Chief Minister Lalu Prasad Yadav, his wife Rabri Devi, son Tejaswi Yadav and others have been granted regular bail by Delhi's Patiala House Court in the money laundering case against them in IRCTC scam case.
They have been granted bail on a personal bond of Rs 1 Lakh and a surety amount each. Next date of hearing is February 11.
On being granted bail in the IRCTC scam case, Tejashwi Yadav said as quoted by ANI, "We are confident of getting justice. We trust the judiciary."
A Special CBI court on Saturday granted regular bail to former Railways Minister Lalu Prasad in the same case.
Special CBI judge Arun Bharadwaj directed the Rashtriya Janta Dal (RJD) supremo to furnish an amount of Rs 1 lakh as a personal bail bond and one surety of like amount.
Lalu is already on an interim bail while the other accused in the case are on regular bail.
Lalu is facing charges of misusing his position in the allotment of a contract to a private company for the maintenance of two IRCTC hotels located at Puri and Ranchi.
The prosecution report had stated that the two hotels of the Indian Railways were first transferred to IRCTC and was sub-leased to the Sujata Hotel Pvt. Ltd owned by Vijay and Vinay Kochhar for maintenance.
