Lalu Prasad, who is currently in Delhi, has recently come out of jail after the Jharkhand High Court granted him bail in the Rs 139 crore Doranda Treasury scam case.
In February, a CBI special court had sentenced him to five years in prison in the case and put a fine of Rs 60 lakh.
The treasury scam case was the fifth fodder scam case in which Lalu Prasad was convicted.
