Patna, March 20 (IANS) Former Bihar chief minister Jagannath Mishra's son has said that he and his family have full faith in the judiciary and would get justice, a day after the ex-chief minister surrendered in a CBI court in Ranchi.

Jagannath Mishra was in a hospital on interim bail since his conviction in 2013 in the fodder scam.

"We have full faith in judiciary as four cases pending against him were quashed by the high court and we strongly hope that the court would acquit him in this case also," Nitish Mishra, who is camping in Ranchi, told IANS over telephone.

Jagannath Mishra has been convicted in only one of the five cases so far. He was sentenced to five years in jail in a fodder scam case in September 2013.

Nitish Mishra who accompanied his old and ailing father when he surrendered in the court on Thursday, said that till date the courts had been kind to his father and granted him bail on health grounds several times.

He said the court, after hearing the bail petition on Friday, asked for more time and will hear the case on April 6.

Jagannath Mishra's official residence here wore a deserted look as there was hardly any one except the security men on duty.
