A local court on Monday issued arrest warrants against suspended Rashtriya Janata Dal MLA Raj Ballabh Yadav and three others in connection with a rape case involving a minor.
Police attached property of absconding Rajballabh Yadav, a MLA of the ruling RJD who is accused of raping a minor girl and failed to surrender in the court, police said.
The RJD suspended Yadav from the party a day after his arrest warrant was issued.
Emerging from the meeting at 10 Circular Road residence of former Chief Minister Rabri Devi where he met RJD president Lalu Prasad, Raj Ballabh Yadav told reporters it was a courtesy visit to extend greetings of Durga Puja.
The Bihar government had challenged Patna HC's order granting bail to Yadav.
Yadav had been absconding since February 9 although four of his accomplices had been arrested earlier.
