Kotkapura and Behbal kalan firing cases are under investigation and the IG of Punjab Police is cooperating with SIT whereas others have not shown any interest.
After taking the issue to the center , informed by a letter to the Union Home Ministry. The Punjab Government will be providing adequate security to Parmaraj Singh Umranangal and his family.
To refresh our memories, Umranangal’s father was killed by Bhindranwale Tiger Force of Khalistan in 1987. This was followed by an attack on his ancestral home in 1988.
It is the right time that the judicial system must pay attention to the matter considering the continuous cooperation of IG Paramraj Singh. Another key point to bring in notice is that the other persons involved refused against the SIT investigation procedures.
A quick action by the judiciary system is expected. The case must prevail justice to the innocent.
