Jharkhand high court gives Lalu Yadav 6 weeks provisional bail for treatment

 “The provisional bail will be effective from the time when Lalu is released,” said Prabhat Kumar, the former Bihar CM’s lawyer. Prasad is in judicial custody after his sentencing in four fodder scam cases. He was granted a three-day parole by the state government on Thursday to attend his son’s marriage in Patna on Saturday.

 Granting the bail, Justice Aparesh Kumar Singh said life was important for any person, whether a convict or a common citizen. Prasad’s medical reports showed that the conditions of his kidneys and heart were ‘critical’. In such circumstances, Prasad needed specialised treatment, the judge said.
