The CBI informed a Delhi court on Tuesday that the requisite sanctions to prosecute former Railway Minister Lalu Prasad in a case related to an alleged land-for-job scam has been received from authorities concerned. The agency told Special Judge Geetanjali Goel that the sanction with respect to the three other accused was still awaited.
The judge noted the submissions and posted the matter for further hearing on September 21. The CBI had on July 3 filed a chargesheet against the 75-year-old RJD chief and his other family members. He is out on bail in this case as well as in fodder scam cases.
