The Delhi High Court on Wednesday (March 18, 2026) said it would not send actor Rajpal Yadav to jail for now in connection with his conviction in cheque bounce cases as he had made a “substantial” payment.
Justice Swarana Kanta Sharma said, “I am not sending him [Mr. Yadav] to jail right now. He has made a substantial payment”. The court told Mr. Yadav, who was physically present, that he had the option to either return the money or contest the matter.
The counsel for the complainant said his application for vacation of suspension of sentence was pending.
