RJD Chief lalu Prasad, presently admitted to Rajendra Institute of Medical Sciences (RIMS), will have to remain there for at least three more days as the wound caused due to rupture of the boil developed near his anus will take some time to heal.

Remarkably, Special CBI Court of Shivpal Singh will give final verdict in fodder scam case RC68A/96 related to Dumka Treasury on Monday which got deferred for second time on Saturday after the Special CBI Judge went on two day training.   

“The wound formed after the rupture of ‘perianal abscess’ developed near the anus will take around 2-3 days till then he will have to remain here,” said Associate Professor in Surgery Department Dr Mrityunjay Sarawgi, under whom Prasad is being treated. He said that the wound has been exposed to a kind of infected and hence he will be needed regular dressing.

“I checked him today also; he is fine and has no fever right now. His blood pressure as well as the sugar level are also found to be normal during the checkup,” said Sarawgi. The boil near the anus got ruptured while coming to the hospital, which did not require operation, he added.

“lalu Ji said that, he has this problem since 2014 and boil developed at the same location several times since then but never troubled him so much and got cured ot its own,” said the doctor. He said that Prasad will have to go through an operation in future if wants to get it cured permanently. The RJD chief’s younger Son Tejashwi Yadav also paid a visit to his father on Sunday.

Sarawgi, however, confirmed that Prasad did not have any cardiac problem right now. Prasad is presently serving a jail term of 3.5 years in a fodder scam case RC64A/96, related to fraudulent withdrawal of Rs 89, 4417 lakh from Deoghar Treasury with the help of 6 fake allotment letters during 1991 to 1994. A total of six cases were lodged against lalu Prasad out of which he has been convicted in three cases.
