A doctor from New York has alleged that he is being threatened by land grabbers at his native village Marhana in Tarn Taran district.
In a written complaint to DGP PS Gill, the doctor, Teghpal Singh, alleged that some people who had attacked his mother some six months ago, were now out on bail and threatening him.
Sandhu claimed that he had met the DGP in Chandigarh who had then directed the SSP, Tarn Taran, P S Virk, to ensure safety for the doctor. However, he was still not being allowed to cultivate his land by Hardip Singh, Gurlal Singh and Hira Singh, residents of same village. “I met SSP also and he promised that justice would prevail but nothing has been done,” Sandhu said, adding that his mother Rupinder Kaur (65) was attacked by the same men on November 17, 2010 and a case was registered.
The accused were arrested and later released on bail and were not allowing him cultivate his land. “They are armed and when I went to cultivate the land with my managers today they issued threats. The police is also not helping me as the accused are trying to grab our land,” said Sandhu.
