Express News Service
AMRITSAR: : After The Indian Express reported the "resurfacing" of three Punjab terrorists who were said to have been killed, the state government has ordered a high-level probe into the fake killings. A special team, comprising senior police officers, has been constituted to dig out facts regarding the "killing" of these terrorists. The report is expected within a fortnight.
Disclosing this, Information and Public Relations Minister Bikramjit Singh Majithia said he has spoken to Chief Minister Parkash Singh Badal in this regard. "The necessary orders for the probe have been issued. The inquiry will also find out who were killed in place of these former terrorists. Justice will be done," he said.
The newspaper had recently exposed the Punjab Police which declared these terrorists "dead" in three separate encounters and pocketed Rs 35 lakh in awards.Share your photos with the people who matter at Yahoo! Canada Photos
