After the shocking news of cricketer Yash Dayal being convicted for raping a minor, the upcoming news is that the Royal Challengers Bengaluru (RCB) pacer has now been denied interim protection. Previously, the arrest warrant was issued for Dayal, who was accused of raping a minor girl during the IPL (Indian Premier League) 2025 season.
Rajasthan HC Strictly Rejects Bail Plea
In what is turning out to be a massive controversy, RCB pacer Yash Dayal, who has been under scrutiny for quite some time, is now facing further problems as the Rajasthan High Court has denied him bail. An arrest warrant was issued in his name following a major offence.
Previously, a case was filed against Dayal for raping a minor, which falls under the relevant sections of the IPC and the Protection of Children from Sexual Offences (POCSO) Act, where a seventeen-year-old girl accused him.
Referring to the case, the High Court mentioned that bail cannot be provided to the cricketer, since the victim was a minor at the time, which comes under the POCSO Act and is a serious criminal offence.
Justice Sudesh Bansal, who was hearing the case, mentioned that the next hearing would take place on August 22.
Dayal Alleges Conspiracy Against Him By A Gang
Dayal’s lawyer, Kunal Jaiman, alleges that this is a major part of the conspiracy that has been running against Dayal by a group of gang members.
“Just seven days after that, another FIR was registered in Jaipur. A gang seems to be involved in blackmailing by filing such cases," Yash Dayal’s lawyer mentioned.
Previously, according to Dayal’s lawyer, a similar case was filed in Ghaziabad, whereas the Allahabad High Court has put a stay on the matter.
While Anil Jaiman, the station-in-charge at the Sangmer police station, gave the details in the Jaipur case, stating that the minor met Dayal during a cricket event. And two years ago, she was sexually assaulted on the pretext of advancing her cricketing career, as she wanted to pursue her dreams in cricket.
According to the case file, Dayal allegedly took advantage of her and raped her again in a hotel room in Jaipur during this year's IPL 2025 season. The case is expected to be a serious matter of concern if someone is actually threatening Dayal or if he is actually the convict in this controversy.
