32-year-old Sharma, whose two months of parole was to expire on November 22, reported in the jail at around 11:45 am, a top jail official said.
Sharma, who was released from jail on September 22 on the ground of his mother's illness, was reportedly spotted in a nightclub in a hotel here on Saturday night. His mother was seen addressing a press conference in Chandigarh last week.
Actor Arjun Rampal, who co-owns a bar in Delhi's Ashoka hotel, confirmed that Manu was spotted there.
The reports triggered a major controversy with legal experts and opposition BJP alleging that he was granted parole under "political pressure" by the Delhi government, a charge strongly denied by Chief Minister Sheila Dikshit who said it was done within the ambit of the law.
Following criticism, the Delhi government asked the city police to investigate whether Sharma violated the parole norms by moving out of Chandigarh and paying a visit to the capital.
Sharma should not have been present in Delhi as he was given parole under the condition that he will visit Chandigarh to meet his "ailing" mother, a top Delhi government official said.
"We have sought a detailed report from Delhi Police about whether Sharma visited the city," he said.
Rampal said Sharma apparently visited the bar as a guest of Sahil Dhingra, one of the members and owner of a leading apparel export company.
"We have revoked the membership (of that particular member) after we came to know that Sharma had entered the bar. We got to see it (his visit) because of the CCTV footage," the actor claimed.
Police came to the LAP bar following a complaint against Dingra, who allegedly picked up a brawl with the son of a senior police officer in the adjoining Ashok Hotel's F-Bar.
Dhingra was allegedly accompanied by Sharma to the bar. Sameer Thapar, vice president and managing director of JCT Ltd, was also present in bar and was taken into preventive custody along with Dhingra, sources said.
However, Sharma allegedly gave a slip to police by escaping from the bar through the rear door.
Thapar claimed he was about to leave the bar when police asked him to come out of his car. Police then took him and Dhingra to the police station. He said police were asking Dhingra whether Manu was with him.
Alleging that he was treated like a criminal, Thapar said he was not told why he was detained for about 12-13 hours.
Coming down heavily on Delhi Police, he said, "The entire experience that I went through was extremely harrowing. It's something they can do to anyone. It has left the worst taste in my mouth."

It is evident that there was no inquiry made about his mothers health but Politics and money played the part. How can he be released when his mother is on lecture tour.What if any action is being taken against the officials???Is this going to be similar to his trail where he was released and allowed now to go out of jail and to night clubs. What kind of justice we have. What about feelings of Lall family. Presume he lives like a rich man in jail also . What a hypocrisy and double game of Law and Order
Under congress rule Afzal guru and kasab can apply for parole.If they don't get good VAKIL-lawyer or lier Manu singhvi is there to help.
There cannot be a better example for abuse of law by rich and powerful (politicians).
There are two sets of laws:One for the poor
I am convinced that Congress is the greatest organized criminal force in this country
After reading the news related to this, my Blief on Indian Judicial system and democracy has multilpied many fold.That , Nothing is impossible if you have money and power -Great India
What else can be expected from dynastic criminals like Sheyla Digshit, a beef eating converted xxtian who is flourishing under the Vatican mafia related Congress president.
You fanatic , do not have your identity, Hide yourself under Mohamad and Jesus., You certainly an Aryan Dog.No doubt.Beef eating is better than shit eating like you all.
THANK GOD FOR THE ALERT MEDIA. THEY EXPOSED THE MANU SHARMA'S TRICKS AND PUT HIM BACK WHERE HE BELONGS. I HOPE HE DOES NOT GET PAROLE FOR THE REST OF HIS LIFE AND ROTS IN JAIL. FOR ONCE THE JUSTICE HAS PREVAILED!
Here is Ms.Sheila Dixit got plenty of time to sign Mr.Manu sharma paper for his pay role. On the otherside is our president who got no time to sign Afazal Guru court paper to be hanged to death. Did to know how money did Sheila Dixit get from Mnau Sharma. Well done Dixit you name will be printed on the residence of manu Sharma in Golden Letters. Why this double standard and who is responsible for all this
This voluntary surrender bit is all made up & planted in the right places so that the murderer can get another parole.Long live Indian democracy.Just wait & watch & see it happening very soon.
So only the rich can get payrole where as the poor must go to prison for life. So this corrupt congress should be thrown out of the country. It will better this idiot go to Italy and start business of making pizza and spagatties. Sheila Dixit how much money did you get to sign manu sharma paper to be out of prison for 2 months.
Voluntarily going back to jail can give some good omensign for Manu Sharma. But why is it that our government always have a reason to hide its wrong acts. Sometimes it leaves with a question that whether they are ever going to overcome with their sheer excuses.
Manu Sharma is a wild animal.He should be chained and kept in the isolation ward of Tihar.The scam related to his parole should be immediately investigated by the CBI.
the media in India have reserved all their wrath for a Manu Sharma or a Vikas yadav and have delibrately spared Tytler and Sajjan of the rod. Let us see where this leads us to
Surrending himself to the law has definitely proved that the morality level is not gone down completely. But what is our government doing? Is checking that the parole granted convicts are deserving this or not.
dear neha, u got it absolutely wrong .. this definitely can not be a decision of the spoilt brat.. he was asked to do so by his lawers( read Ram Jethmalani) to surrender himself bcos had he not done that and court had cancelled his paroll...he definitely would have lost his chances in future to exploit the law with his money power .. hang him pls..
YOU CALL A PERSON GOING BACK TO JAIL 'VOLUNTARILY' AFTER IT WAS SHOWN ON TV THAT HE HAD OBTAINED THE PAROLE BY FRAUD AND HAD VIOLATED THE PAROLE CONDITIONS, MORALITY? YOU PLACE MANU SHARMA ON A VERY HIGH PEDESTAL. PEOPLE WHO GRANTED HIM PAROLE SHOULD BE INVESTIGATED AND PUNISHED. BUT THAT WOULD BE TOO MUCH TO ASK OF A CORRUPT GOVT. OFFICIALS!
Kudos to congress.It will free Afzal & Kasab too one fine day.Just wait & watch
Manu Sharma's going back to jail voluntarily has proved that even convicts have some conscience but politicians don't. Delhi government's action which recommended his Parole should be probed and a severe action must be taken. There can't be different law for rich and congressmen and another for common people.
Looks like Manu realised that even late at nights he cant be free to roam under whatever guise he dons and once the press gets after him it is safest back in jail !
It is now proven beyond doubt that Manu Sharma is a threat to civil society. Out on parole he created similar situation which led to the crime he is convicted. The ruckus created by him and his friend is now all over the papers. Not only should the parole be cancelled, but his conduct should also be recorded so that his family is not able to manipulate law any further. In the meantime it needs to be investigated as to what led to the grant of parole and its subsequent extension.
