Bathinda, August 8
In the recent high profile murder of Sandeep Singh alias Bobby, son of former Akali Minister Teja Singh, the early pictures taken of the deceased have raised question marks over the investigation methods of the police besides belying its claims.
SSP Ashish Chaudhary, in a press conference on Friday, claimed to have cracked the blind murder case of Sandeep Singh with the arrest of three persons. However, he maintained that Jagtar Singh, an old rival of Sandeep Singh, who was named in the FIR, has still not been given a clean chit.
Further, the SSP had said that the killers along with other important things, decamped with the gold Kara that Sandeep was wearing in his wrist. The same was mentioned in the press note that he released to the media during the press conference.
Ironically, at the time when media persons had witnessed Sandeep's body at about 10 am on August 2, the Kara was very much present on his right wrist. In the presence of the media, the volunteers of Sahara Jan Seva had asked the police officials present there to remove it and hand it over to the kin of the deceased but the officials said they would look into such details later.
Some of the lensmen unintentionally captured the image of the Kara in their camera.
Receiving an anonymous call regarding this, TNS checked out the photographs that had captured the Kara in his wrist.
Talking over the phone, Tek Chand, volunteer of the Sahara Jan Seva, confirmed the facts. "I asked the policemen to remove the Kara but they refused. Then we took his body to the mortuary of the Civil Hospital and handed it over to the officials concerned."
In reply to a query, SSP Ashish Chaudhary stated through an SMS, "It was the complainant who alleged it. We do not claim that we have found them. Case is still open for investigation."
However, SHO Kotwali police station, GS Romana, who had conducted the preliminary investigation in the case, said, "I was busy with some other case so the investigation was done by some other official. So I am unable to confirm the fact."
When he was reminded about the inquest proceedings, Romana said, "I will have to check the details."
Sandeep Singh's sister Amarjot Kaur, when contacted, said she was not in a position to comment on it.
