On the eve of the first Constituent Assembly election, four people, including Congress leader and former minister Mohammad Aftab Alam, were acquitted by the Janakpur temporary bench Birganj, who were accused of throwing the injured alive in the brick kiln after the bomb blast in Rautahat.

Reversing the order of District Court Rautahat, the bench of Judges Khushi Prasad Tharu and Arjun Maharjan on Wednesday acquitted Alam along with his brother Mohammad Mahtab Alam, Sheikh Saraj and Badri Sahni by reversing the decision of District Court Rautahat .
