Ex-Bihar Min Murder Case: SC Upholds Former MLA's Life Term
The Daily Guardian
|May 16, 2025
The Supreme Court has upheld the life term given to criminal-turned-politician Vijay Kumar Shukla alias Munna Shukla for the murder of former RJD minister Brij Bihari Prasad in Patna in 1998.
A bench of former Chief Justice Sanjiv Khanna and Justices Sanjay Kumar and R Mahadevan dismissed pleas of Shukla and a co-convict seeking a review of a top court verdict.
On October 3, last year, the top court convicted Shukla and one Mantu Tiwari in the case.
"We do not find any good ground and reason to review the judgment dated October 3, 2024," the bench said, taking into account the documents on record, in its May 6 order uploaded recently.
The apex court also rejected the prayer for an open court hearing on the review petitions.
The top court partially set aside the Patna High Court verdict acquitting all the accused when it asked convicts Shukla, a former MLA, and Tiwari to surrender within 15 days to undergo life imprisonment.
