Family and Villagers Protest Demanding Arrests in Punjab Sarpanch Murder Case

Family and Villagers Protest Demanding Arrests in Punjab Sarpanch Murder CaseNext

Family members and villagers of Anandgarh's slain sarpanch, Satpal Singh Mintu, protested outside Hoshiarpur's Sadar police station and later blocked the Hoshiarpur-Chandigarh bypass, demanding the arrest of the remaining two accused in his murder. Four of six suspects have been arrested. Police and MLA Brahm Shankar Jimpa assured prompt action, but the family refused to allow post-mortem or last rites until all arrests are made. The protest reflects local frustration over the ongoing investigation.
