Supreme Court slaps notice on Lalu Prasad to revive Scam case
The notice came after the Central Bureau of Investigation moved the apex court challenging the high court order that dropped some charges against the former Bihar Chief Minister in November 2014.
Lalu Prasad had been charged in several cases related to fictitious medicines and fodder scam involving Rs. 900-crore.
In October 2013, Lalu Prasad was convicted in one of the cases on charges of embezzling Rs.37 crore. But he received bail in November 2014 from the Supreme Court.
He was banned from contesting elections due to his conviction.
