A Delhi Police team has taken former Bihar MLA Raju Singh to Kushinagar in Uttar Pradesh to recover the blood-stained clothes of his driver which were allegedly dumped there while they were on the run after a celebratory firing incident in Delhi in which a woman was killed, an official said Sunday.
The five-member team of officials from Fatehpur Beri Police Station has also taken along with them Raju Singh's driver Hari Singh.
The 42-year-old woman, an architect, suffered critical injuries after the former MLA allegedly fired celebratory gun shots in the air during a New Year's Eve party at his farmhouse in south Delhi's Vasant Kunj. She died on January 3.
The victim, Archana Gupta, who was a resident of Gautam Nagar in Hauz Khas, had gone to the party along with her husband and daughter.
The ex-MLA, who had unsuccessfully contested the 2015 assembly election in Bihar on a BJP ticket, and his driver Hari Singh, had fled Delhi after the incident. They were arrested after being detained on January 2 from Gorakhpur in Uttar Pradesh.
