Bihar BJP MLA Rashmi Verma suspects threat to life, lodges FIR

Patna:  BJP MLA Rashmi Verma has claimed that she suspects threat to her life from an ex-employee of her office. She lodged an FIR in West Champaran’s Shikarpur police station on Monday.

Verma, a BJP MLA from Bihar’s Narkatiaganj assembly constituency in West Champaran district, lodged the FIR against ex-employee of her office, Sanjay Sarangpuri in Shikarpur police station.

“My family members have spotted Sanjay roaming suspiciously near my house. He was also carrying a pistol. He was involved in fraudulent activities. He fraudulently used my fake signature, post and name to extract money from others. When I learnt about his activities, he tried to defame me publicly. Hence, I sacked him and now he is trying to take revenge,” Verma said.

“We registered a complaint on Sunday and an FIR against Sanjay Sarangpuri in Shikarpur police station was lodged on Monday and the matter is under investigation,” said Ajay Kumar, SHO of Shikarpur police station.

Earlier on Friday, another BJP MLA, Hari Bhushan Thakur of Madhubani’s Bipsi assembly constituency claimed that he had received a life threatening call from an unidentified person on Thursday (June 23) evening.
