Bollywood actor Rajpal Yadav has been released from Tihar Jail after spending 12 days in judicial custody in connection with a Rs 9 crore cheque bounce case. The actor had earlier surrendered before the court following legal proceedings related to the financial dispute.
According to available information, the case is linked to an alleged monetary transaction associated with a film production venture. It is claimed that a cheque issued as part of the agreement was dishonoured due to non-payment, leading to legal action against the actor. Acting on court orders, Rajpal Yadav surrendered and was subsequently sent to jail.
Sources indicate that after completing the required legal formalities and fulfilling court-mandated conditions, the actor was granted relief, paving the way for his release. Rajpal Yadav did not make any public statement while leaving the jail premises, but people close to him stated that he respects the legal process and will continue to cooperate with the judiciary.
Rajpal Yadav is widely known for his comic timing and memorable performances in several popular Hindi films. News of his imprisonment had surprised many fans and members of the film industry, while his release has brought a sense of relief among his supporters.
The case, however, is still under legal consideration, and further hearings are expected in the coming days. Legal experts say cheque bounce cases often involve strict procedures, though outcomes may vary depending on settlements and compliance with court directions.
