Punjab AAP MLA Harmeet Singh Pathanmajra arrested in Gwalior after evading police in a rape case for over six months.
AAP MLA Harmeet Singh Pathanmajra was arrested by the Punjab Police from Madhya Pradesh's Gwalior, more than six months after he escaped police custody in a rape case.
Officials on Wednesday (March 25, 2026) said Mr. Pathanmajra, the first-time MLA from Sanour in Patiala, was nabbed from Gwalior on late Tuesday (March 24) night.
He was brought back to Patiala, and will be presented before a court here, Senior Superintendent of Police (Patiala) Varun Sharma said.
On September 1, 2025, police had registered a case against Pathanmajra at the Civil Lines police station here on the charges of rape, cheating and criminal intimidation.
The case was registered based on a complaint by a Zirakpur-based woman, who alleged that the MLA misrepresented himself as a divorcee, entered into a relationship with her and later married in 2021 while already being married.
She accused him of continued sexual exploitation, threats and sending "obscene" material to her.
