Gurdaspur:
Former Akali minister Sucha Singh
Langah, who had been on the run after a rape case was
registered against him, today surrendered before the district
court here.
Punjab Police had been conducting raids to trace him. "He (Langah) surrendered today in the district court
here," Gurdaspur SSP Harcharan Singh Bhullar said.
Langah was booked by the police on the night of September

allegedly been raping her repeatedly since 2009. Police had booked Langah under Sections 376 (rape), 384
(extortion), 420 (cheating) and 506 (criminal intimidation) of
the IPC.
