HC Quashes Criminal Proceedings Against BJP MP
The Jharkhand High Court has decided to stop the criminal case against BJP MP Nishikant Dubey.
He was accused of hitting someone in Deoghar last December.
The person said Dubey attacked him because he was selling cattle illegally.
The court listened to both sides and decided to close the case.
This means Dubey won't face any punishment for this incident.
The court's decision is final, and no more legal action will be taken against the MP for this matter.
Jharkhand High Court quashed criminal proceedings against BJP MP Nishikant Dubey.
Dubey was accused of assaulting a person for alleged cattle smuggling in Deoghar.
The incident occurred in December 2023 at Manoharpur market.
The FIR claimed Dubey used his influence to assault the person, branding him a Bangladeshi cattle smuggler.
