Haryana Deputy Advocate General sacked for carrying Dera chief's bag

August 26, 2017 17:34

Haryana Deputy Advocate General Gurdass Singh Salwara has been sacked.

The Deputy Advocate General was seen assisting the rapist godman by carrying the luggage of Gurmeet Ram Rahim Singh, who was convicted of raping two of his followers on Friday.

Haryana A-G Baldev Mahajan confirmed that the deputy A-G has been sacked and said he had recommended the termination on seeing the video.

He said that the deputy A-G had accompanied the convicted godman after claiming to be his relative.

The law officer was in his uniform when he picked Ram Rahim Singhs bags. Mahajan, however, claimed that had the deputy A-G been in plainclothes, it would not have amounted to impropriety.
