Amritsar, July 7
Former Jathedar, Akal Takht, Bhai Ranjit Singh, has demanded a fresh probe to find out the reasons leading to the accident of a Santro car (PB-10-BE-2288) near Khajjiar in which Senior Deputy Mayor Ajaybir Pal Singh Randhawa’s wife, Mandip Kaur, and daughter, Anhadnoor Kaur, 9, were killed about one and a half years ago. Addressing mediapersons here today, Bhai Ranjit Singh said the car belonged to a resident of Ludhiana, which Ajaybir had borrowed from Sub-Inspector Sarbjit Singh, who was then SHO of Police Station C division.
He alleged that the Himachal government, under pressure of the BJP and Akali leaders of Punjab, had cancelled the case registered under Sections 304-A/287, IPC, without even holding a proper investigation, ascertaining the ownership of the car and its forensic check-up.
He furnished a six-page report compiled by the Punjab Human Rights Organisation (PHRO) and added that Ajaybir remarried Rupinder Kaur on June 20.
Meanwhile, Chairman, PHRO, Justice (retd) Ajit Singh Bains posted the report to Chief Minister, Himachal Pradesh, PK Dhumal, to conduct an independent inquiry into the case to nail the culprit.
The report claimed that “as per the inquiry of the PHRO team, it is not an accident but a well-planned murder”. It claimed that during investigation, it came to light that Ajaybir had illicit relations with Rupinder and added that both had gone abroad many times. It added that earlier Rupinder had relations with a journalist of an English daily and Ajaybir had made an abortive attempt to kill him through a road accident.
It stated that Rupinder’s brother Palwinder Singh Sandhu had a criminal record and Ajaybir used to protect him from the clutches of the police. It alleged that all three had conspired to eliminate Mandip while Anhadnoor was murdered to present the murders as an accident.
Ajaybir said he was ready to face any inquiry. He said the untimely death of his wife and daughter had already shattered his life.
