Yuvraj had arrived with security and lawyer
Yuvraj reached Hisar to join the investigation only after the order of the High Court. Along with him, 4-5 staff members including security personnel and lawyers had reached here from Chandigarh. After a few hours of action and questioning, Yuvraj left for Chandigarh.

Yuvraj accused of giving VIP treatment
In this case, the complainant Rajat Kalsan has alleged that the Haryana Police treated Yuvraj Singh as a VIP. Policemen were seen posing for selfies with him. Apart from the treatment of one of the accused, they were fed juices and snacks in the gazetted officer’s mess. Also, this thing was deliberately kept away from the media. The complainant has challenged in the Supreme Court the decision of Punjab Haryana High Court granting interim bail to Yuvraj Singh in this case. The hearing on that is still pending.
