AAP MLA Challenges Proclaimed Offender Tag in HC
An MLA from the Aam Aadmi Party named Harmit Singh Pathanmajra is in trouble.
A court in Patiala said he is a proclaimed offender because he didn't show up for a case.
The case is about a woman who says she is his second wife and accuses him of cheating, rape, and threatening her.
He went to a bigger court to ask them to cancel the arrest warrants and remove the proclaimed offender tag.
The bigger court is called the Punjab and Haryana High Court.
The MLA's lawyer is helping him with this.
AAP MLA Harmit Singh Pathanmajra challenges proclaimed offender status in Punjab and Haryana High Court.

The FIR was registered on September 1, 2025, at the Civil Lines police station in Patiala.
