The Delhi High Court will on Monday hear a plea from Rashtriya Janta Dal (RJD) MP from Bihar Mohammed Shahabuddin, currently in jail facing life imprisonment, seeking permission to attend parliament.

Shahabuddin, who is in Siwan jail, filed the petition to attend the Feb 16-26 session. In his plea filed Friday, he pointed towards the recent nod given to his party colleague and jailed MP Rajesh Ranjan Yadav alias Pappu Yadav.
