CBI arrests Bhola Yadav, former aide to RJD supremo Lalu Prasad Yadav

Central Bureau Investigation (CBI) on Wednesday arrested Bhola Yadav, who used to be the Officer on Special Duty (OSD) to Lalu Prasad Yadav when he was railway minister, in an alleged land-for-job case.

Searches are underway in four locations in Bihar.

Earlier this May, the CBI had filed an FIR in the “land for railway job” case and named Lalu Yadav, his wife and daughters among several others as accused in the case.

CBI conducted searches at 17 locations belonging to Lalu Yadav and his family members in Delhi and Bihar in May.

The alleged scam took place when Yadav was Railway Minister between 2004 to 2009.
