In an interesting turn of events, Bihar police officer Lipi Singh has landed in controversy after she allegedly used an RS MP's vehicle to transport independent MLA Anant Singh to the court's premises on Saturday.

Earlier in the day, the Saket court in Delhi had granted Bihar Police a two-day transit remand of the Bihar MLA, who has been charged under the Unlawful Activities (Prevention) Act. The Bihar police had requested the court for the transit remand so that he could be taken to Patna for further questioning.

The trouble for the celebrated Bihar police officer sparked when she reached the court — not in a police vehicle, but in a car that had a Rajya Sabha sticker pasted on it. According to Zee Media sources, the car belonged to MLC Ranveer Nandan.

This led to further speculation as to why an MLC's car was carrying a Rajya Sabha MP's sticker, a move that might prove beneficial for the remanded MLA.

This comes even as the Bihar MLA has alleged on multiple occasions that Barh ASP Lipi Singh was conspiring against him.

Crime Doesn’t Pay

After the weapons were recovered from his ancestral residence, Singh was charged under the UAPA, Arms and Explosives Act. Following this, the police had also issued a lookout notice. Soon after the MLA had gone missing, who later surrendered.

The police had sought the transit remand in connection with the recovery of AK-47 rifle, grenades, and bullets during raids at his ancestral residence. According to the police, the weapons recovered from Singh's residence might have been used in "some big incidents".

After the weapons were recovered, Singh was charged under the UAPA, Arms and Explosives Act. Following this, on August 17, the MLA went missing and the police had also issued a lookout notice against him.

He later released a video announcing his surrender in a few days; the gangster-politician then surrendered before Delhi's Saket court on Friday.
