Bail to Bihar road rage accused Rocky Yadav shocks victim's family

Patna, Oct 20 (The Bihar Post/IBNS): The Patna High Court has granted bail to road rage accused Rocky Yadav, fuelling anger among the victim's family.

Rocky, son of ruling JD-U lawmaker Manorama Devi, is accused of shooting dead a businessman’s son in May this year just after the latter overtook his car. The incident took place in Gaya district.

Granting the bail, the court observed there was nothing wrong in allowing bail for the accused as there was no witness in the case to confirm the victim was killed by Rocky’s bullets.

“None accompanying the victim in his car said they saw the accused (Rocky) opening fire at them. All said the bullets were fired from behind but none said who fired the bullets,” the court was quoted as saying in a local newspaper on Thursday.

According to the court, the FIR in this murder case was registered by victim’s brother Aaksh Sachdeva but he was not present at the time of the incident.

The victim's family said they were hugely disappointed at the court granting bail to the accused.

“We have lost faith in the judiciary as well as the government. Now, we won’t allow any politicians to visit our home. We also won’t cast votes in the future,” said victim’s mother.

The JD-U said the family shouldn’t get disappointed. The government will do its best to provide justice to them .
