Delhi HC refuses to send Rajpal Yadav back to jail in cheque bounce case, says, “He is not running away” The Delhi High Court on Wednesday declined to vacate its interim order suspending the sentence of actor Rajpal Yadav in a cheque bounce case, observing that there was no reason to send him back to jail at this stage. Justice Swarana Kanta Sharma made the remark while refusing to pass any directions on an application filed by the complainant seeking cancellation of the relief granted to Yadav. The Court had earlier, on February 16, suspended his sentence, allowing him to walk out of jail after being in custody since February 5. During the hearing, the complainant’s counsel informed the Court that an application seeking vacation of the suspension of sentence was pending. Responding to this, Justice Sharma said, “I do not find any reason. He is not running away. He is still here. He is not running away. Kahin nahi jaa rahe (He is not going anywhere). ”Yadav appeared before the Court in person and made submissions. The complainant’s counsel also argued that the actor was attempting to turn the matter into a media trial, stating, “Either he (Yadav) should argue, or his counsel. ”Addressing the concern, the judge remarked, “Media trial ka kya hai wo to har ek cheez ka hota rehta hai. Mujhe koi fark nahi padta. Main media dekhti hi nhi hu…Media me kya hota hai meri kaan, aankhein sab band hoti hai. Mere liye he is an ordinary litigant, you are an ordinary litigant. ”T... #High_Court #Delhi_High #Rajpal_Yadav #Rajpal #actor_Rajpal #cheque_bounce #bounce_case #send_Rajpal #Wednesday_declined #Yadav_back
