A local court in Bihar's Gaya district will today announce its verdict in the road rage case in which a Janata Dal-United (JD-U) leader's son shot dead a teenager for overtaking his SUV in May 2016.

Rakesh Ranjan alias Rocky Yadav, son of JD-U MLC Manorama Devi and history sheeter Bindi Yadav, is accused of killing Class XII student Aditya Sachdeva for overtaking his SUV in Gaya on May 7, 2016.

"We hope we will get justice," Aditya's mother said ahead of the court's verdict.

Rocky is facing two cases - one of murder of Aditya and another under Excise Act for recovery of liquor bottles from the house of his mother. He was arrested from his father's mixer plant in Gaya on May 10.

His name was included along with his father Bindi Yadav in the case of recovery of liquor bottles which were found when police raided his mother's house looking for Rocky.

Rocky was granted bail by Patna High Court but it was cancelled by the Supreme Court later in October 2016.
