Punjab Pradesh Congress Committee president Capt Amarinder Singh today reminded Chief Minister Parkash Singh Badal of his promise to act against those indulging in vendetta cases against Congress workers while pointing out how former legislator Gurpreet Kangar and 21 others were being falsely implicated in a case under Section 307 of the IPC.
The PCC president brought to the CM’s notice the false case slapped on two-time Rampura Phull MLA at the behest of his political opponents on the day the results were declared.
Giving details of the case, Capt Amarinder said a false case was registered against Kangar and 21 others on January 11, 2012, under various Sections, including 307, of the IPC at the behest of his political opponents. After investigations, the case was cancelled at that time. However, immediately after the poll results on March 6, the case was re-opened. Amarinder alleged that despite Kangar joining the investigation, the police told the court that he was not cooperating and his bail plea was rejected.
Capt Amarinder hoped that the CM would take note of such cases and do the needful.
