Police arrested Rocky from his father's mixer plant in Gaya on May 10. Rocky's parents, accused of sheltering him while he was on the run after the murder, were recently enlarged on bail.

Police filed a charge sheet in a Gaya court against Rocky and another accused in connection with the murder case.

They have also filed charge sheet against Rocky's cousin Teni Yadav, his father Bindi Yadav and his MLC mother's bodyguard Rajesh Kumar in the murder case.

The state government had put the case on speedy trial and investigation was completed within three weeks and charge sheet filed within a month of the incident.
