On the pruning of security of slain singer Sidhu Moosewala and the leakage of a highly confidential document in the media, AAP Cabinet Minister Aman Arora stated in an Assembly that “giving or withdrawing security cover comes out in the public domain and it is not “rocket science,” he answered this on the question asked by Congress Leader of the Opposition Partap Singh Bajwa.
Heated arguments exchanged between the AAP Ministers and Congress over the pruning of the security of slain singer Sidhu Moosewala, who was brutally murdered last year in May 2022. Just a day before, the parents of Sidhu Moosewala protested outside the Punjab Assembly, following which the Congress party raised queries related to Sidhu Moosewala in the Assembly today.
Following an uproar and heated arguments with the Aam Aadmi Party members, the Congress MLAs walked out of the House. Sukhpal Singh Khaira, the Bholath MLA from Congress, said the parents of Moosewala had demanded action against Chief Minister Bhagwant Mann’s media advisor Baltej Pannu for allegedly sharing information about the withdrawal of security cover of several people, including Moosewala, on social media, a day before the singer’s assassination.
Punjab Cabinet Minister Aman Arora informed the House that police had booked 40 persons in connection with the Moosewala murder case, of whom 29 had been arrested and two neutralized. He said further that a process of extraditing Canada-based gangster Goldy Brar, the alleged mastermind behind the murder, was going on. While adding further, he said that the shooters involved in the murders of Moosewala and Kabaddi player Sandeep Nangal Ambian came from the neighboring state of Haryana.
The minister said the neighboring states have become the “breeding grounds of gangsters’, saying criminals come to Punjab and leave after committing a crime. Interrupting Arora, Leader of the Opposition and Congress MLA Partap Singh Bajwa asked the minister that they were talking about the “leakage” of information pertaining to the security cover of Moosewala, which was shared by Baltej Pannu, the media advisor to the chief minister’s office.
He asked Arora whether the state government would take action against Pannu. Replying to Bajwa, Arora said the giving or withdrawal of security cover comes out in the public domain and it is not “rocket science”. Then a heated exchange took place between members of the Treasury benches and the Congress MLAs. Minister Arora accused the Congress members of misguiding the people, saying that Moosewala’s security was only partially withdrawn. Arora said Moosewala did not take his two remaining gunmen and his bullet-proof vehicle along on that day.
On this TDG, we spoke to LOP Partap Singh Bajwa, who said that the ruling government has no intention of serving justice to the grieving parents of Sidhu Moosewala and is giving imbecilic answers to the opposition.
