Sumedh Saini
Three decades after the brutal murder of innocent Sikh youth Balwant Singh Multani, the killer cop Sumedh Saini has been finally been booked for his heinous crime. The Special Investigation Team probing this case has added Section 302 of the Indian Penal Code in the FIR registered in relation to Balwant Singh Multani’s enforced disappearance case.
As Section-302
denotes a non-bailable offense so the arrest of Sumedh Saini seems almost sure
after three days because the SIT can’t arrest Sumedh Saini without prior notice
of three days.
The SIT is
learned to have served three days prior notice to Sumedh Saini today in this
regard.
It is pertinent
to note here that the indictment of Sumedh Saini under murder charges has
become possible because two former cops namely Inspector Jagir Singh and
Assistant Sub Inspector Kuldeep Singh, who are eyewitness of brutal torture on
Multani, have turned approver in this case.
Yesterday, their
statements were recorded before the court under Section 164 of the CrPC i.e. on
turning approver in this disappearance case.
