The Minister was arrested in Lucknow by police on March 14 after the Gautampalli Police Station in the State Capital lodged the FIR on the directives of the Supreme Court on February 17. The court had sought the case diary from the police and later granted bail in the molestation and threat charges case against the former Minister and his accomplices.
The court had directed Prajapati and his two accomplices to give two sureties of Rs one-lakh each. In the charges, the former Minister was alleged to have molested the minor daughter of a woman after threatening her. Prajapati is presently lodged in the Lucknow Jail. (UNI)
