A special Central Bureau of Investigation court in Ranchi will pronounce the quantum of punishment to Rashtriya Janata Dal chief Lalu Prasad and 15 others today.

The court deferred the matter yesterday due to a condolence meeting held during the day to mourn the death of two lawyers.

The court had on December 23 convicted Lalu Prasad and the other 15 in a fodder scam case, 21 years after it had surfaced.

Six others, including another former chief minister, Jagannath Mishra, were acquitted.

The case pertains to fraudulent withdrawal of Rs 89.27 lakh from the Deoghar Treasury between 1991 and 1994. -- PTI
