Gurugram/New Delhi, January 30
BJP leader Suraj Pal Amu, who was referred to Rohtak’s Post-Graduate Institute of Medical Sciences (PGIMS) due to ill health, has been discharged and brought back to Gurugram’s Bhondsi jail on Tuesday.
Amu was admitted to the hospital, after he complained of ill health on the day he was to be produced before a Haryana court over his statements on the recently released film ‘Padmaavat’.
He was sent to judicial custody on January 26.
He was taken into preventive detention.
The Supreme Court is also hearing a plea filed against Amu over his anti-‘Padmaavat’ protest.
The BJP leader is infamous for offering Rs 10 crore bounty in November 2017 for beheading actress Deepika Padukone and director Bhansali for allegedly distorting historical facts and showing Queen Padmini in a bad light in the film. With ANI
