Ranchi, June 14: After conviction in a corruption case, a special Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI) court on Tuesday ordered the release of Rashtriya Janata Dal (RJD) chief Lalu Prasad Yadav’s passport, which was submitted as part of his bail conditions.
“Yadav was likely to travel to Singapore for kidney treatment. The court has allowed the release of his passport. We are likely to get it by tomorrow. Our client will now apply for its renewal. After renewal, we would again deposit it with the court and apply for its release whenever he gets an appointment for treatment abroad,” said lawyer Prabhat Kumar.
Notably, Lalu Prasad has been suffering from kidney, heart, as well as other problems. At present, he is on bail after completing more than half of the jail term in the fodder scam. Lalu Prasad’s passport is about to expire, therefore he’ll have to renew it. The RJD leader is likely to travel Singapore for his kidney transplant if it is renewed.
