Gopalganj triple murder: Undeterred by FIR, says Tejashwi Yadav

PATNA: A day after an FIR was lodged against leader of opposition in the Bihar assembly Tejashwi Prasad Yadav, his mother and former chief minister Rabri Devi, elder brother Tej Pratap and other party members for violating social distancing norms, the RJD leader on Saturday said such moves will not deter him from seeking justice.
"If you think you can intimidate us by filing cases against me and my party leader then you are living in illusion.We wouldn’t rest until your favourite criminal MLA is arrested & justice is done. As LoP, I won’t let Bihar become a lawless state," tweeted Tejashwi.

Tejashwi, along with other RJD legislators and party members, had gathered outside the 10, Circular Road bungalow allotted to Rabri to march to Gopalganj and meet the kin of triple murder victims. He had demanded arrest of JD(U) MLA from Kuchaikote, Amrendra Pandey alias Pappu Pandey, who has been named in the FIR lodged by survivor JP Yadav, an RJD leader.
However, the district administration did not allow the RJD leaders for inter-district movement in the lockdown, following which they protested and raised slogans against the government. Later, they met Bihar Vidhan Sabha Speaker Vijay Kumar Choudhary and demanded a three-day special session of the House to discuss the deteriorating law and order situation and the government’s failure to tackle Covid-19.
