NEWS TODAY ON CRIMINALISATION OF POLITICS ITEM 1: Rediff News/PTI, July 20, 2004, Tuesday Put Pappu Yadav back in jail: SC The Supreme Court on Tuesday directed the Bihar government to immediately transfer former Member of Parliament Pappu Yadav alias Rajesh Ranjan from Patna Medical College to Beur Jail in Patna. (OTHER ITEMS BOTTOM) Taking serious exception to the manner in which Yadav has been given VVIP treatment at the hospital though from records it was found that he doesn't require so, the court asked authorities to place him in jail and give the medical treatment there. The court finding the statement of Superintendent of Patna Medical College Hospital to be incorrect, called upon him to explain why appropriate proceedings should not be initiated against him. The order of the court came after perusing a CBI report, which gave details of the manner in which Pappu Yadav, who is in judicial custody in connection with Ajit Sarkar murder case, has been allowed to misuse official machinery. The court found that despite vacancy in prisoners' ward, the Bihar government constituted a Medical Board to examine him which recommended his admission into the general ward in the hospital. The Court found that Pappu Yadav actually occupied two rooms earmarked for ICU purposes and was never admitted in the general ward. Taking serious objection to this, the court ordered that he be taken forthwith to Beur jail in Patna and directed that his treatment, if and when required, would be done by a visiting doctor. When Yadav's counsel said the accused required immediate medical treatment at AIIMS, the Court observed that it "will be the last to deny opportunity for your treatment but you have taken many a court for a ride." ------------------------------------------------------------ ITEM 2: Rediff News, July 20, 2004, Tuesday Lalu's nephew threatened me: IAS officer Anand Mohan Sahay in Patna A First Information Report has been lodged against the nephew of Union Railway Minister and Rashtriya Janata Dal chief Lalu Prasad Yadav. for allegedly threatening a senior Indian Administrative Services officer.
