According to a police official from Rohtak, Singh returned to Sunaria jail late afternoon.

After being granted parole last month, the sect chief had gone to the Dera Sacha Sauda Ashram, Barnawa, in Uttar Pradesh’s Baghpat district.

Singh had walked out of the Sunaria jail in Haryana’s Rohtak district a month ago after he was granted a 30-day parole for the second time this year.

Singh turned 56 on August 15.

The Sirsa-headquartered sect chief is serving a 20-year jail term for raping two of his disciples.

Earlier, the Dera chief had been granted a 40-day parole in January. In October last year too, he was granted a 40-day parole.

Prior to his October parole, he had come out of the prison on a month-long parole in June last year. Besides, he was granted three weeks’ furlough from February 7, 2022.
