There is more trouble brewing for Lalu and sons in Bihar. The newly formed government in Bihar has decided to probe afresh the soil purchase scam involving Lalu Yadav's elder son Tej Pratap.

The decision to constitute a fresh probe comes in the wake of new evidence being submitted by the forest department regarding the purchase of soil. It may be recalled that Deputy Chief Minister of Bihar had alleged that the soil used for the construction of a mall near the Saguna Mor was purchased by Patna zoo for Rs 90 lakh without inviting any tender.

He had also claimed that the two acre land of the mall belonged to Delight Marketing Pvt Ltd. Both Lalus sons Tehaswhi and Tej were on the board of directors of the firm.
