The police has served a notice to JD(U) MLA Sarfaraz Alam, who was booked for allegedly abusing a couple inside Rajdhani Express.

The MLA has been asked to appear before the police by Saturday evening for questioning.

A probe team, which had gone to Mughalsarai and New Delhi for recording statements of the complainant and the train superintendent of Dibrugarh-New Delhi Rajdhani Express, has returned.

According to the complaint, the incident occurred on January 17 when Alam, third time JD(U) MLA and son of RJD MP Mohammad Taslimuddin, misbehaved with the couple on board the train. An FIR was registered against him with GRP Patna the next day.

The MLA was alleged to have been travelling without ticket and was drunk.
