One more held in NRI murder case

Batala, September 12

The police has arrested one more accused, Rajbir Singh Bajwa (alias Raju), in the infamous murder case of Canada-based NRI Gurinder Singh Gill.
With today’s arrest, three of the four accused, including BJP councillor Rajbir Singh Bhullar and his accomplice Jarnail Singh, a Punjab police head constable — the duo arrested yesterday — have been taken into custody. Yadvinder Singh Bhullar, brother of the main accused Rajbir Bhullar, is still at large.
Gill was gunned down in broad daylight in front of the busy court complex, barely 50 metres away from the SSP’s residence, on Friday.
Batala SSP Gurkirpal Singh said several teams had been constituted to nab Yadvinder. Bajwa’s arrest, however, remains shrouded in mystery as a top police official on anonymity disclosed that the accused surrendered before the cops last evening. But officials say he was arrested following a raid.
Also, the Gurdaspur NRI unit’s executive committee held a meeting and condemned the murder.
