SC adjourns to April 22 hearing on CBI's appeal against bail to Lalu Prasad in Deoghar treasury scam

The Supreme Court of India has postponed the hearing on the Central Bureau of Investigation's (CBI) appeal regarding the bail granted to Lalu Prasad Yadav in connection with the Deoghar treasury scam. Originally scheduled for discussion, the case has now been adjourned to April 22, 2023. Lalu Prasad, a prominent political figure and former Chief Minister of Bihar, has faced multiple legal challenges over the years, with the Deoghar treasury scam being one of the most significant cases against him. The scam, which involves the alleged embezzlement of funds from the Deoghar treasury during his tenure as Chief Minister, has drawn considerable public and media attention. The CBI's appeal aims to challenge the bail decision, arguing that it undermines the severity of the alleged offenses. This adjournment adds to the ongoing scrutiny surrounding Lalu Prasad's legal battles and raises questions about the implications for his political career. As the hearing date approaches, the case continues to be a focal point of interest, reflecting the intertwining of politics and law in India’s judicial landscape.
