Bihar: Complaint filed against RJD MLA Bhai Virendra for threatening Panchayat secretary  

Patna: A complaint against Rashtriya Janata Dal (RJD) MLA from Maner, Bhai Virendra was filed after an alleged audio clip of him threatening the Panchayat Sachiv (secretary) went viral on the social media.

The Panchayat secretary Sandeep Kumar on July 28 lodged a complaint at a SC/ST police station, alleging the RJD lawmaker for threatening him during a conversation over phone.

According to Kumar, he was threatened by the MLA over the phone after he failed to recognise him initially and did not greeted him appropriately as per the protocol.

He stated that he was not aware that it was the local MLA on the call as he did not disclose about his position during the conversation initially.

The incident relates to an alleged call made by the RJD MLA to the Panchayat secretary to enquire about the progress of a death certificate to be issued by the latter.

Kumar has alleged the RJD leader for using abusive language during the conversation such as to hit him with shoes. A purported audio clip of the said conversation is also doing the rounds on the social media.
