FIR Lodged Against JD(U) MLA in Murder Case
An FIR has been lodged against a JD(U) MLA and four others in connection with the murder of a man.
The victim’s mother lodged an FIR at the Pakribarawan Police Station against ruling party MLA Pradeep Mahto and four of his associates within hours after her son Pappu Mahto was shot dead by unidentified assailants yesterday, police said.
Mahto was shot dead on the Pakribarawan-Kashichak road at Devibigaha when he was travelling by a jeep, police said.
Incidentally, the victim’s father Shailendra Mahto was murdered 12 years ago in which the JD(U) MLA was named as an accused, police said.
The JD(U) MLA has denied the charge that he was involved in anyway in the murder of Pappu Mahto and said he would come out unscathed after the probe.
