Satish, Girish, and Rajiv Roshan were allegedly murdered by Mohammed Shahabuddin's henchmen. Their parents are thankful that Supreme Court lawyer Prashant Bhushan will challenge the former RJD MP's bail order.
The furore over the release of the RJD strongman from Siwan has now reached the apex court through various petitions.
'I will get justice at last,' says the feared RJD leader.
Witnesses in the cases that controversial Rashtriya Janata Dal leader Shahabuddin has been facing have been "bumped off", the Supreme Court said on Monday, rejecting his claim of facing "media trial" in a murder case and his vehement plea for more time to prepare for his defence.
His name has cropped up as an accused in journalist Rajdeo Ranjan murder case.
The apex court also rebuked Nitish Kumar-led Bihar government for its lax approach in opposing bail granted to the RJD strongman.
He was medically examined then shifted him to jail number 2, whose other notable inmates include gangster Chhota Rajan.
Shahabuddin approached three senior lawyers, of whom Jethmalani has reportedly agreed to argue his case.
The apex court directed the CBI to file a status report of its investigation before it on October 17, the next date of hearing.
The apex court ordered that either the gangster-turned-politician should surrender or Bihar Police should take him in custody "forthwith".
Ex-RJD MP has been charged with murder and criminal conspiracy in the killing of journalist Rajdeo Ranjan.
The Supreme Court on Friday agreed to hear on Monday a plea seeking cancellation of bail granted to convicted gangster-turned-RJD leader Mohammad Shahabuddin by Patna High Court in a case pertaining to the killing of a youth in Siwan town of Bihar.
'I have nothing more to lose. My three sons were killed. I am not going to sit silent.'
The government is mulling moving the Supreme Court for cancellation of his bail even as opposition National Democratic Alliance on Wednesday demanded his arrest in the journalist Rajdeo Ranjan murder case.
The former RJD leader was released on bail in the Rajiv Roshan murder case after 11 years, reports M I Khan.
Advocate Prashant Bhushan told the SC that Shahabuddin is a 'class-A history-sheeter who cannot be reformed'.
The Supreme Court on Wednesday came down heavily on Bihar government for not placing facts before the Patna High Court which granted bail to controversial Rashtriya Janata Dal leader Mohd Shahabuddin in a murder case.
