Three Arrested in Punjab Murder Linked to 1980 Revenge Plot
Police in Punjab's Hoshiarpur have arrested three individuals in connection with the September 14 murder of 64-year-old cement trader Gulzar Singh. Investigations suggest the killing was a revenge act orchestrated by Jagjit Singh, a US-based NRI, whose brother was murdered in 1980. Gulzar's father had been convicted for that earlier murder. The accused allegedly planned and executed the attack with sharp weapons, and police are pursuing legal measures to apprehend others involved, including those abroad.
