New Delhi: Few Days back the Central Bureau of Investigation questioned former Bihar Chief Ministers Lalu Prasad Yadav and Rabri Devi.
On Friday, 10 March 2023, Bihar Deputy CM Tejashwi Yadav's Delhi house was searched in connection with the land-for-jobs case.
The Enforcement Directorate (ED) is carrying out searches at 15 locations in the money laundering case involving Lalu Prasad Yadav and his entire family.
On March 7, the CBI had interrogated Lalu Yadav for five hours in Delhi at his daughter Misa Bharti's Pandara Road house, where he is currently residing after his kidney transplant surgery.
A day before, the probe agency had questioned Rabri Devi at her Patna residence.
The CBI case named the Yadav couple and their daughters Misa and Hema, among others, is based on accusations that Mr. Yadav and his family members bought land at cheap rates in exchange for jobs during his tenure as Union Railway Minister from 2004 to 2009.
In July last year, Mr. Yadav's aide and former Officer on Special Duty (OSD) Bhola Yadav was arrested by the CBI in the case.
