Supreme Court Grants Rajpal Yadav Final Two Weeks to Deposit Rs 2 Crore in Cheque Bounce Case
The Supreme Court has granted actor Rajpal Yadav a final two-week extension to deposit Rs 2 crore and present a concrete repayment proposal in a cheque bounce case involving seven dishonoured cheques linked to a Rs 5 crore loan taken in 2010. The court directed Yadav to surrender his passport and extended his exemption from surrendering until October 5. The bench expressed reservations about Yadav's past conduct and compliance but allowed the relief as a last opportunity. The case stems from financial disputes with Murli Projects Pvt Ltd.
