In what can be called a rather twisted turn of fate, the mother, the father and the son are all lodged in the same prison.
M I Khan reports.

 

Suspended Janata Dal-United member of rhe Bihar legislative council Manorama Devi, her husband Bindi and their son Rocky -- accused of allegedly killing Aditya Sachdeva, 20, on May 7, the teenage son of a Gaya businessman, are all lodged at the Gaya Central jail.

Rocky and his father are lodged in the same ward. Rocky is prisoner number 22774, while his father Bindi is prisoner number 22758.

Rocky's mother Manorama is lodged in the women's ward, which is separate from the men's ward in the jail.

She surrendered on Tuesday, May 17, and while being taken to jail from the court, the MLC alleged that the Bharatiya Janata Party had got her trapped in the case for political reasons.

The family's palatial home in Gaya's A P Colony is located half a kilometre from the jail.

"There are a number of inmates, including dreaded criminals and Maoists in the jail, well known to Bindi for years," a close associate of Bindi told Rediff.com, adding, "Some of them are providing help to him and his son."

Rocky was arrested on May 10 and sent to 14 days in judicial custody. He was later remanded to police custody for 48 hours and is now back in the jail.

A day after Rocky killed Sachdeva, Bindi was arrested on charges of helping his son to escape, and sent to jail. Bindi, a criminal-turned-politician, who was feared in Gaya, has several serious criminal cases against him.
