Ekka and Rai released from jail

Ranchi, Dec 15 (PTI) Former Jharkhand ministers Enos Ekka and Harinarain Rai were today released from the Birsa Munda Central jail here, two days after getting provisional bail from the Supreme Court. "Both of them were released during the day," a senior official of the jail told PTI here. The two, arrested in 2009 for allegedly possessing assets disproportionate to their known sources of income, were ministers when Madhu Koda was the Chief Minister in the UPA government between 2006 and 2008. Rai and Ekka were arrested on August 17, 2009, after a social activist filed a PIL before the Jharkhand High Court accusing them of amassing wealth more than their known source of income during their ministerial tenures. Another ex-minister Kamlesh Singh got bail earlier. Koda and another of his former cabinet colleague Bhanu Pratap Sahi are still in judicial custody. PTI PVR NIK AVT
