Giriraj Singh Malinga surrenders in Dholpur

Jaipur: Former MLA and BJP leader Girraj Singh Malinga surrendered at the SC-ST Court in Dholpur on Wednesday evening. The court sent Malinga to judicial custody till December 2.

Following his surrender, the police escorted Malinga, the former MLA of Bari, on foot for about half a kilometer to the Kotwali police station. From there, he was transported in a police vehicle to Dholpur Jail.

The surrender stems from a two-and-a-halfyear-old case involving the assault of AEN Harshadapati and JEN Nitin Gulati on March 28, 2022, at the Bari Discom office in Dholpur. The incident led to a police complaint on March 29, accusing Malinga (then a Congress MLA) and others of assault, obstructing official duties, and violations under SC-ST Act. Five individuals were arrested in the case.

On November 8, SC lifted stay on Malinga’s bail. The apex court also directed Malinga to surrender within 14 days. The case is scheduled for a hearing four weeks after his surrender.
