Honeypreet Insan likely to surrender before court

News Hour:

Honeypreet Insan, “adopted daughter” of jailed Dera Sacha Sauda sect chief Gurmeet Ram Rahim Singh, is likely to surrender before court on Tuesday after being on the run for over a month.

The Delhi high court last week dismissed her transit anticipatory bail application.

Honeypreet alias Priyanka Taneja, went into hiding soon after large-scale violence broke out in different parts of Haryana, Punjab and Delhi on August 25 following Ram Rahim’s conviction in two rape cases. She and other top Dera members were booked for inciting violence.

There had been reports that Honeypreet had fled to Nepal following Ram Rahim’s sentencing.

“I was very much in India, I did not go to Nepal,” she told TV channels on Tuesday.

Honeypreet claimed she is innocent.
