New Delhi, May 16
The Namdhari Vidhayak Jatha today blamed the Punjab Police for their “failure” to act promptly in the Avtar Singh’s murder case in 2011 and the Jalandhar bomb blast case in December last year. It said had the police acted in these cases, Mata Chand Kaur would have been alive.
“In the Jalandhar bomb blast case, the police failed to arrest the culprit or even determine how the bomb reached Jeevan Nagar. Associates of Thakur Dilip Singh are accused in this case. The bomb was taken to Jalandhar from Jeevan Nagar where Thakur Dilip Singh has his residence,” alleged Harpal Singh, secretary, Namdhari Vidhayak Jatha.
The jatha also claimed that in 2011, Thakur Dilip Singh was named in the FIR lodged in connection with the murder of Avtar Singh. — TNS
