Another property of Rashtriya Janata Dal legislator Raj Ballabh Prasad Yadav, who has been accused of rape, was attached here on Tuesday, police said.

Two days after the legislator's house at Englishpar Pathra village was attached, his flat in Patna was attached. "A joint police team of Nalanda district and Patna attached his flat," police official P. Bharti said.

"Though the flat was empty as there were no household goods, police team uprooted door, windows and basins and seized them," he said.

According to police, the rape accused legislator's property was attached in compliance with Additional District and Sessions Judge Rashmi Shikha's order.

Police officials said the legislator's 13 bank accounts have been sealed and police are likely to begin auction process of his plots at different places.

The licences of legislator's rifle, pistol and a double-barrel gun have already been suspended by the district administration, police said. He has also been asked to deposit arms with the concerned police station, failing which his licences would be cancelled.
