Rajpal Yadav to surrender at Tihar Jail after | Indian Movie News
The Delhi High Court on Thursday dismissed Bollywood actor Rajpal Yadav’s last attempt to postpone his surrender in a long-running cheque bounce case, prompting the actor to say he’ll report to jail authorities later in the day to start serving his sentence.
Yadav, who was current in court, had sought further time to handle the excellent funds owed to the complainant, Murli Projects Private Limited, but the bench, led by Justice Swarana Kanta Sharma, refused to grant any additional extensions. The court said it will hear him only after he surrendered to the jail authorities, noting that Yadav had beforehand been directed to surrender on Wednesday but failed to do so.
Senior advocate Abhijat, showing for Yadav, informed the court that a cost of Rs 25 lakhs could be made on the same day and that a tentative reimbursement schedule had been agreed between the events. However, the bench declined to take into account the plea, emphasising that earlier leniency had already been prolonged and that Yadav had not fulfilled assurances given to the court.
The actor’s sentence stems from a May 2024 conviction in a cheque bounce case, in which a periods court sentenced him to six months’ imprisonment; the High Court later suspended the sentence on an assurance that Yadav would pursue a settlement with the complainant. That association in the end failed, with Yadav lacking varied deadlines to pay the agreed-upon dues.
On February 2, the High Court had directed Yadav to surrender within two days after rejecting his rationalization for the delayed cost, including a declare that an earlier demand draft contained a typographical error. The court famous that Yadav had not taken steps to rectify the error or make vital progress toward settling the matter.
Following the refusal of his latest plea, Yadav’s counsel confirmed that the actor will surrender at Tihar Jail today, which is Thursday, after which he can search additional reduction or file functions in relation to his case.
The High Court’s ruling illustrates the judiciary’s restricted tolerance for repeated non-compliance with court orders in financial disputes under the Negotiable Instruments Act.
