The RJD chief, however, will have to remain in jail as he is serving time in another case related to Dumka treasury. The High Court has asked Prasad to submit two personal bonds of Rs 50,000 each and deposit a fine of Rs 2 lakh, which was awarded by a special CBI court to secure his bail. It also sought his medical report and the details of all those he has met during the course of his treatment at Rajendra Institute of Medical Sciences in Ranchi. — PTI
