The Punjab police on Monday said they have rounded up a few people in connection with the killing of Punjabi singer Shubhdeep Singh Sidhu, known as Sidhu Moosewala for questioning and vital leads have been collected.
Sidhu Moosewala, was shot dead at Punjab’s Jahawarke village in Mansa district on Sunday, a day after his security cover was trimmed, putting the two-and-a-half-month-old Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) government on the back-foot over the breakdown of law-and-order situation in the State as the Opposition parties launched an offensive against the AAP.
Inspector-General of Police (Faridkot Range) Pradeep Yadav told reporters that an investigation was underway and a few people have been rounded up for questioning. “We have vital leads and we are working on that,” he said. Mr. Yadav said it apparently looks like gangsters were behind the incident.
