Chandigarh : Former minister and senior Congress leader Gurchet Singh Bhullar today alleged that Khem Karan legislator Virsa Singh Valtoha was behind the registration of petty cases against two persons who had committed murder in Uttarakhand in order to create an alibi for them.
The former minister alleged that the accused, Mahinder Singh and Joga Singh, both residents of Kashipur in Uttarakhand, had been provided an alibi. The two had been booked by the Tarn Taran police under the Excise Act on the day they had committed the murder in Uttarakhand, Bhullar alleged.
Bhullar said though a few police personnel had been dismissed after the Uttarakhand Director-General of Police (DGP) took up the matter with his Punjab counterpart, the state government was not looking into the genesis of the incident that had occurred because of political patronage.
The Congress leader demanded a CBI inquiry into the case to expose those who had pressured the police into registering a "false" case against the two murder accused.
