RJD chief Lalu Yadav’s provisional bail gets 4 weeks extension

Ranchi | The Ranchi High Court on Friday gave an extension to Rashtriya Janta Dal (RJD) chief Lalu Prasad Yadav’s provisional bail by increasing it to another six weeks.

Speaking to media, Lalu Yadav’s lawyer said, “The doctor had advised my client to rest for three months. We had already gotten a provisional bail for one week and now the court has extended it for six more weeks. We’ll apply for a further extension if required.” Yadav’s earlier granted provisional bail on the medical ground was set to expire on July 3. The court has now decided to extend the same till August 17.
