The Sangrur police today claimed to have arrested the main accused in the murder case of Congress leader Riki Dullet, who was allegedly shot dead on November 13. The police has identified five more persons involved in the case, who are yet to be arrested.

Sangrur SSP Harcharan Singh Bhullar said the main accused in the case, Sukhwinder Singh Sukhi, alleged to have shot at Dullet at the crime scene. “Sukhi was intercepted at a naka near the Ubbawal Road when he was traveling in a car,” Bhullar said.

The police is claimed to have recovered a gun and seven bullets from the accused.

Bhullar said the police had identified Amandeep Singh, Goldy Pehalwan, Attar Boxer, Hardeep Singh Gaggarpur and Kimmi as co-accused in the case. “They will be arrested soon as we are conducting raids,” he added.

Earlier, the police had registered an FIR against Sultan Singh, Sukhwinder Singh, DSP Sangrur Kuldeep Sharma, additional SHO Sangrur city Surinder Bhalla and a SAD worker Amanvir Singh Cherry, on the statement of Rajinder Kaur. All, except Sukhi and Sultan, are yet to be arrested.

SP Sangrur Paramjit Singh Guraya, who heads the Special Investigating Team (SIT) probing the matter, said they had summoned Cherry and others accused of conspiracy, but they were not arrested as the investigation was still on.
