Now, Janata Dal (United) MLC Manorama Devi, whose son Rocky Yadav was arrested on Monday for allegedly shooting a 19-year-old boy in Gaya, is on the run, reported Times of India.
She was suspended from the party for ‘protecting a murder accused’ and after 18 Indian Made Foreign Liquor bottles were recovered during a raid at her residence to find her absconding son.
State unit JD (U) president Bashishtha Narain Singh told The Times of India that the suspension was ordered after reports said that she had shielded her son and also violated the oath taken by Bihar lawmakers against alcoholism.
