The authorities had on Tuesday withdrawn the RPF security from the 10, Circular Road residence of Lalu Prasad following instructions from the RPF headquarters, a top RPF official had said on condition of anonymity.

Prasad has been accorded Z-plus security category by the Union Home ministry following threat to his life from communal forces and Maoists.

The East Central Railway has also dismantled the Railways camp office erected at the bungalow premises.

The bungalow, where Prasad stays, is allotted in the name of his wife and former Bihar chief minister Rabri Devi.
