Ojha,
who is in Delhi to seek legal advice, told PTI that he would request the apex court that Shahabuddin be tried outside Bihar, preferably in Delhi, to ensure a fair trial.

Chief Minister Rabri Devi recently removed Ojha from the DGP's post after he had publicly accused Shahabuddin of maintaining links with 'criminal and anti-national' elements. He had also said the RJD MP should be shifted to Tihar Jail in Delhi from Siwan prison in Bihar.
