HC revokes stay order on Sita Soren

January 25, 2014 00:08

The Jharkhand high court today revoked its stay order on JMM MLA Sita Soren in connection with the 2012 horse trading case lodged following cash seizure on the polling day of Rajya Sabha elections.

The bench of Justice R R Prasad revoked the stay order it had given after Soren petitioned against a lower court's order for her arrest and property attachment last year. The CBI is investigating the case.

Sita is one of the accused in the case. CBI has raided the premises of at least 23 MLAs of different political parties in connection with the case.
