Chandigarh Police Arrest Woman for Alleged Contract Killing Over Property Dispute

Chandigarh Police have arrested Amreen Kaur for allegedly orchestrating the March 18, 2026, murder of property dealer Charanpreet Singh, alias Cheeni, outside a Sector-9 gym. Amreen reportedly held a grudge over a disputed property deal in New Chandigarh, accusing Cheeni of fraud and financial loss. She is said to have hired gangster Lucky Patial through intermediary Harshpreet Singh Bains, who was also arrested with a pistol registered to Amreen. Investigations link the crime to organized syndicates, with encrypted communications used to plan the killing.
