CHANDIGARH: After the assassination of Sidhu Moosewala, his father Balkaur Singh Moosewala wrote a teary-eyed letter to Chief Minister Bhagwant Mann.
He has lodged an FIR with the Punjab police. He also revealed that his son was receiving threats over the phone from several gangsters of the Lawrence Bishnoi gang. An FIR was registered against unknown persons under sections 302, 307, and 341 of the Indian Penal Code and sections 25 and 27 of the Arms Act at City-1 Mansa Police Station, District Mansa.
Balkaur wrote a letter to CM Mann saying, “Due to the failure of your government, my son Shubhdeep Singh has left us forever. Shubhdeep’s mother asks me where is my son and when will he return home… My request for justice to the family. This matter should be investigated by the present Judge of the High Court. The Punjab government should ensure the cooperation of CBI and NIA in this investigation. The ones who will review my son’s security and return. The officers who made the order public should be held accountable. My son has made Punjab famous all over the world with his hard work. But DGP Punjab has linked my son’s death to a gang war. That’s why I ask DGP Punjab to go public. I sincerely request you to apologise. Hope for justice.”
