Actor Rajpal Yadav Surrenders in Cheque Bounce Case ..
Case Background
Actor rajpal yadav has surrendered at tihar jail in connection with a cheque bounce case after directions from the delhi High Court.
The case relates to a financial dispute in which payment commitments made by the actor were not fulfilled within the court-approved timeline.
He had previously been convicted and sentenced in 2024 in the same cheque dishonour matter.
The latest development follows court proceedings regarding his request for more time to comply with payment obligations.
Delhi high court Order
The delhi high court had earlier directed rajpal yadav to surrender before jail authorities by 4 pm on Wednesday.
The bench, led by Justice Swaran Kanta Sharma, noted that he had already been granted additional time earlier.
The court observed that leniency had already been shown when he claimed he was in mumbai and unable to appear immediately.
His fresh plea seeking further extension to surrender was rejected by the court.
The judge stated there was no valid basis left to grant more relief or delay.
Delay and Final Surrender
Rajpal Yadav did not surrender on wednesday despite the court deadline.
According to jail sources and media reports, he eventually surrendered at tihar jail on thursday at around 4 pm.
His surrender came after the high court dismissed his application for additional time.
Jail officials reportedly completed the formal surrender process following standard procedure.
Payment Dispute Details
The case involves a total promised payment of ₹2.5 crore.
This amount was to be cleared in installments — ₹40 lakh and ₹2.10 crore.
The court was informed that neither installment was deposited within the required deadline.
Yadav’s lawyer argued that funds were being arranged and requested a one-week extension.
The lawyer claimed ₹50 lakh had been arranged, and proof of funds was available.
The court, however, refused to grant further time based on these assurances.
Legal Position of the Court
The court emphadata-sized that prior relief had already been granted.
It noted that repeated assurances without payment weaken the basis for extensions.
The plea for more time was formally dismissed.
The surrender order, therefore, remained in force without modification.
Work Front Update
Despite legal troubles, rajpal yadav remains active professionally.
He is set to appear in the upcoming films Bhoot Bangla and Welcome to the Jungle.
Shooting for both projects is currently underway.
