From North Bihar more ‘entertaining news’ flashes! A Bihar MLA from the ruling JD(U) ‘allegedly’ helped her husband ( a murder accused) escape from police custody in Purnia district. Mandal is an accused in nearly 100 criminal cases, say local media reports.
Bima Bharti, JD(U)’s Rupauli MLA, together with JD(U) Purnia MP Santosh Kushwaha helped her husband Awadhesh Mandal escape from the police station within hours of his arrest on Sunday. Bharti is a former minister.
Police sources said that Mandal was arrested after he reportedly threatened the widow and two children of Chanchal Paswan over deposing against him in court. Mandal is accused of murdering Chanchal in 2005.
Mandal was caught in a fracas, when Paswan Tola residents reacted to his threat, following which police arrested him. Soon after the arrest, Bharti and Kushwaha arrived at Maranga police station around 8.30pm with more than 150 supporters. Mandal’s handcuffs unlocked as he wanted to write an FIR against the attack on him.
While Kushwaha was talking to police officials in the station about the arrest, Bharti remained inside her white SUV with two armed guards in front of the police station building, sources said. Mandal suddenly jumped into the MLA’s vehicle which then sped towards Harda. Soon Kushwaha also left.
The district administration had sent reinforcements sensing trouble but Mandal fled before they could reach the police station.
