MOGA – The Punjab Police have terminated the services of its four officials in the murder case of a Canada-based NRI, Harinder Singh Sran (46).
Sran was gunned-down over a land dispute at Kaliye Wala village in the district on April 14.
Ferozepur Range DIG Amar Singh Chahal confirmed the development.
Among those dismissed are Inspector Bhola Singh (posted at the crime branch in Chandigarh), and staff SHO Kuljinder Singh, Sub-Inspector Guljinder Singh and ASI Bhag Mal, all posted at Moga police station (rural). The action was taken over “negligence” in duty and the quartet’s alleged involvement in the crime.
The police had registered an FIR against Inspector Bhola Singh, victim’s sister-in-law (brother’s wife) Baljinder Kaur and nine others on the charges of murder. There was reportedly a dispute between the NRI and his sister-in-law over a plot, which was in the possession of the victim for the past several years.
