The Delhi High Court upholds the conviction of Rajpal Yadav in a cheque bounce case, dismissing his appeal against the trial court’s decision. Multiple reports say the High Court finds no reason to interfere with the lower court’s findings and confirms that the trial court’s judgment is upheld in its entirety. One report also notes that the court remarks on Yadav’s conduct, describing it as “dubious,” in arriving at its conclusion.
Following the dismissal of the appeal, the High Court directs Yadav to return to jail, according to the reports. In addition, the High Court refuses to extend probation, with one outlet reporting that the High Court’s decision denies Yadav any probation relief. Another report quotes an advocate appearing for Murli Projects Pvt. Ltd., stating to ANI that the High Court’s verdict fully affirms the trial court.
Overall, the coverage is consistent that the High Court affirms both the conviction and the trial court’s approach, while rejecting attempts to overturn the decision or secure probation.
