Sudhir Suri’s murder was ‘planned’, says son Manik Suri

Family of Slain Shiv Sena leader Sudhir Suri has claimed to have received threat calls from UK the night before his murder and the calls haven’t stopped even after the killing.

Manik Suri, son of Sudhir Suri said that the caller had introduced himself as Amritpal Singh and spoke about his intent of sending some men and that the attack was nothing short of a ‘planned’ attack.

“There was a threat call the night before the incident. My father received a call from the UK. The caller introduced himself as Amritpal Singh and said he was sending some men and that his ‘deal is done’… It was planned, four bullets hit him,” Manik was quoted as saying by news agency ANI.

“We’re (Suri’s family) receiving threatening calls from outside. We’ve told the DGP and given it in writing too. We’re demanding the status of a martyr for my father, suspension of negligent officers and security and another accommodation for us. Won’t cremate him until our demands are met,” he added.

Furthermore, Manik Suri also demanded the status of martyr for his father and has also demanded that negligent officers must be suspended and that he would not cremate his father until and unless all the demands are met.

The killing took place in front of the Police team in the busy market. A medical board has been formed for deceased leader’s autopsy and heavy security has been deployed outside the post-mortem house. Punjab DGP Gaurav Yadav has assured thorough investigation into the case and that the case will be examined from all the angles and all the conspiracies will be probed.
