The Punjab police registered a case against Daler Mehndi and six others after Bakshish Singh of Balbehra village in Patiala district alleged that the singer had taken money to send him abroad but failed to keep his promise.
Before entering the court premises, the singer claimed he was being falsely implicated in the case and that the Punjab police had demanded Rs 1.5 crore to 'settle' the case.
