Patiala\/Chandigarh, April 14, 2021 (Press Ki Taquat Bureau)
\nReferring to the probe carried out in the Behbal Kalan and Kotkapura firing cases and still no further outcome, thus delaying the justice to the families of the victims and the people of Punjab, the Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) state president and Lok Sabha member Bhagwant Mann said that the recent Punjab and Haryana High Court order and the resignation moved by IPS Kunwar Vijay Pratap Singh, who was heading the SIT probing the cases; has proved the collusion between Captain Amarinder Singh and the Badals. Addressing a press conference along with state general secretary Harchand Singh Barsat, State secretary Gagndeep Singh Chadha, State treasurer Neena Mittal, Dist. President (U) Jasbir Gandhi and Dist. President (R) Megh Chand Shermajra here on Wednesday, Bhagwant Mann said that in 2015, Guru Granth Sahib ji sacrilege had taken place in Bargari in which firing, tear gas shells and water cannons were used in which two people were martyred and many were severely injured. He said that many raised the issue for investigation at that time but it did not reach to a meaningful conclusion yet.
\nHe said that the report prepared by Justice Jora Singh (retd) was dumped and after coming to power, Captain Amarinder Singh had sworn in Sri Gutka Sahib, claiming to punish the culprits in the case. He said that thereafter Justice Ranjit Singh Commission was formed and after one year, the report was tabled in the Vidhan Sabha. Mann further said that later a special investigating team (SIT) was formed under IG Kunwar Vijay Pratap Singh, who worked hard and took risk for collecting evidence by visiting the places and talking to the people there.<\/p>\n
\u201cThe SIT also produced 9 challans in the court but suddenly after three years; all that they had done was dumped,\u201d he added. Taking a dig at Captain Amarinder Singh and the Badals, Bhagwant Mann said, \u201cI have been saying it for a long time that Captain and the Badals were in collusion. Now, there is no need to place any evidence of this as their nexus has come to fore.\u201d Further talking about the recent High Court order of quashing the SIT probe reports, Mann said that the advocates of the Punjab government were asked whether they want the CBI to probe, the Haryana police or a new SIT without Kunwar Vijay Pratap.<\/p>\n
\u201cIt was shocking that the Captain government\u2019s advocates opted to form a new SIT by dumping two other choices of CBI and Haryana police, given by the court. How can the Captain government challenge the HC decision when it was given after asking their consent,\u201d said Mann. He said that the Captain government had appointed Advocate General Atul Nanda, who has a team of 150 advocates, only for losing the case. \u201cFour years have passed, now it will take one year in the Supreme Court and another four years in the new SIT,\u201d he added.<\/p>\n
Lashing out at Captain and the Badals, Mann said, \u201cIs there no value of the lives of the two Sikhs, who got martyred. Is there no value of the injured and tortured severely by the police?\u201d He said that now Captain was saying that he has certainty on Kunwar Vijay\u2019s probe report,<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
