Sikhs demand justice in India

* KILLER COPS; AN EX-PANJAB POLICE INSPECTOR TELLS ALL* ਪੰਜਾਬ ਪੁਲਿਸ ਅਤੇ ਸਮੇ ਸਮੇ ਦੀਆਂ ਸਰਕਾਰਾਂ ਦੀ ਮਿਲੀ-ਭੁਗਤ ਦੀ ਅੰਦਰੂਨੀ ਜਾਣਕਾਰੀ *




ਬਾਕੀ ਵੇਰਵਾ ਹੇਠਾਂ ਪੜ੍ਹੋ ਜੀ

Gurmeet 'Pinky' an ex-Panjab police officer, has created shockwaves with his insider story of the way Panjab Police operated in the 90's and still operates today. He has given detailed accounts of torture, cold blooded murder, bribery and theft and points the finger squarely, at senior officers for nurturing this culture of corruption at the highest levels.

Gurmeet Pinky gives disturbing eyewitness accounts of the actions carried out by Sumedh Saini (former DGP of Panjab until October 2015). At the time, Sumedh Saini was SSP of Ludhiana which is also where Gurmeet Pinky was stationed. Saini was well-known to those in the Sikh struggle for his appetite to abduct, torture and kill Sikh boys in fake encounters. It was these actvities that led one outfit to target Saini in a bomb blast in which he suffered minor injuries. Gurmeet Pinky went to visit Saini while he recovered in hospital where Saini swore revenge against Balwinder Singh Jattana and Charanjit Singh Channa, whom he suspected had carried out the attack. Pinky, on Saini's direct orders, went to Ludhiana to collect arms and men in order to perform whatever Saini had in mind, but while Pinky was on his errand, the notorious 'Police Cat' Phoola Nihang also visited Saini in hospital. Pinky only learned what Saini meant by 'revenge' when he heard the news that four members of Balwinder Singh Jattana's family including a chid, had been killed in cold blood. A few years later Gurmeet 'Pinky' met up with Phoola Nihang in jail who confirmed that he had met Saini in hospital and he had ordered the execution of the Jattana family. Yet, this was not enough for Saini, Charanjit Singh Channa had a brother who worked as Head Constable in the Ropar district and according to Pinky, Saini had ordered him to be gunned down too.

Pinky relates another story of Jasbir Singh alias 'Pinka Mohali', who had been picked up by police for routine questioning. As was normal practise, he was severely tortured on the orders of Saini, but when he could provide no information, Saini decided to kill him. First he ordered the use of a cyanide pill, this failed to kill Jasbir as it was a damaged capsule. Then Saini ordered he be force-fed pesticide, but this also failed to kill Jasbir. Exasperated at two failed attempts, Sumedh Saini pulled out his service revolver and shot Jasbir at point blank range in the head.

Gurmeet Pinky tells of many more instances where the police picked up, tortured and killed Sikhs, stating he himself is witness to at least fifty murders. Those who regularly follow this SOPW page, will not be surprised by the evidence provided by Pinky, but it adds to the wealth of evidence against the Panjab police already available in the public domain. What is surprising, is how the Indian judiciary, media and investigative agencies, show no inclination to bring these corrupt officers to book. Anyone who has been charged with these crimes due to the sheer perseverance of affected families or human rights activists, has only ever been a low ranking police officer and those who are convicted continue to enjoy the same state salary which is paid throughout their sentence and beyond. Every effort is made to silence the officers so they do not implicate senior ranks and to this end, they are provided with the best legal representation money can buy, granted early parole and given monetary incentives from a secret slush fund maintained by the Panjab Police.

There is no-one in the whole Indian justice system prepared to take on and bring to book those senior Panjab police officers with blood on their hands, some of whom are still wined and dined by the political elite, despite the wealth of evidence against them. Could it be, the Indian state has been fully aware all along of their illegal activities as it certainly provided vast financial funds to the Panjab police? Judges and central agencies have been compromised and the world is well aware that the Indian system lacks brave, honest and independently minded men or women.

The silence from all quarters of India, shines a spotlight on the importance of the role our Sikh politicians should have played and be playing now. Neither Sukhbir Badal nor Captain Amrinder have given a response to the evidence released by Gurmeet Pinky, yet they are both wrestling each other to become the next Chief Minster of Panjab in 2017. They condemn the actions of Jagtar Singh H4wara and others, but never tackle the issue of why Sikh groups were forced to take such drastic action. Sukhbir Badal cosied up to Sumedh Saini and Captain Amrinder Singh reveres Beant as one of the greatest CM's of Panjab. Neither Badal nor Amrinder have the qualities of a good Sikh, never mind about having the qualities to lead or represent the Sikh interest.

It does not take a genius to understand that until the corrosive and corrupt elements of the Panjab police are rooted out and made to pay for their crimes, Panjab can not prosper. There has to be a movement that stands for JUSTICE and HUMAN RIGHTS.

ਪੰਜਾਬ ਪੁਲਿਸ ਦੇ ਇੱਕ ਸਾਬਕਾ ਅਧਿਕਾਰੀ ਗੁਰਮੀਤ 'ਪਿੰਕੀ' ਨੇ 90ਵਿਆਂ ਵਿੱਚ ਪੰਜਾਬ ਪੁਲਿਸ ਕਿਸ ਤਰ੍ਹਾਂ ਕੰਮ ਕਰਦੀ ਸੀ, ਦੀ ਅੰਦਰੂਨੀ ਜਾਣਕਾਰੀ ਜਨਤਕ ਕਰਕੇ ਹਲਚਲ ਮਚਾਈ ਹੋਈ ਹੈ । ਉਸਨੇ ਵਿਸਥਾਰ ਨਾਲ ਜਾਣਕਾਰੀ ਦਿੱਤੀ ਹੈ ਕਿ ਪੁਲਿਸ ਕਿਸ ਤਰ੍ਹਾਂ ਅਣਮਨੁੱਖੀ ਤਸ਼ੱਦਦ ਕਰਦੀ ਸੀ, ਗੈਰ ਕਾਨੂੰਨੀ ਕਤਲ ਕਰਦੀ ਸੀ, ਲੁੱਟਖੋਹ ਤੇ ਰਿਸ਼ਵਤ ਲੈਣਾ ਉਹਨਾਂ ਲਈ ਆਮ ਗੱਲ ਸੀ । ਉਸ ਨੇ ਪੁਲਿਸ ਦੇ ਇਸ ਭ੍ਰਿਸ਼ਟ ਕੰਮਕਾਰ ਦੇ ਤਰੀਕੇ ਨੂੰ ਹੱਲਾਸ਼ੇਰੀ ਦੇਣ ਲਈ ਅਤੇ ਖੁਦ ਸ਼ਾਮਲ ਹੋਣ ਲਈ ਸੀਨੀਅਰ ਅਧਿਕਾਰੀਆਂ ਨੂੰ ਜ਼ਿੰਮੇਵਾਰ ਠਹਿਰਾਇਆ ਹੈ ।

ਗੁਰਮੀਤ ਪਿੰਕੀ ਨੇ ਸੁਮੇਧ ਸੈਣੀ (ਸਾਬਕਾ ਡੀ ਜੀ ਪੀ ਪੰਜਾਬ) ਦੇ ਕੰਮਾਂ ਬਾਰੇ ਦਿਲ ਦਹਿਲਾ ਦੇਣ ਵਾਲੇ ਖੁਲਾਸੇ ਕੀਤੇ ਹਨ ਜੋ ਕਿ ਉਸ ਨੇ ਅੱਖੀਂ ਦੇਖੇ ਹਨ । ਉਸ ਸਮੇਂ ਸੁਮੇਧ ਸੈਣੀ ਲੁਧਿਆਣਾ ਵਿੱਚ ਐਸ ਐਸ ਪੀ ਦੇ ਤੌਰ ਤੇ ਤਾਇਨਾਤ ਸੀ ਤੇ ਪਿੰਕੀ ਵੀ ਉੱਥੇ ਹੀ ਨੌਕਰੀ ਕਰ ਰਿਹਾ ਸੀ । ਸਿੱਖ ਸੰਘਰਸ਼ ਵਿੱਚ ਵਿਚਰਣ ਵਾਲੇ ਸੈਣੀ ਨੂੰ ਬਹੁਤ ਚੰਗੀ ਤਰ੍ਹਾਂ ਜਾਣਦੇ ਸਨ ਕਿ ਉਹ ਕਿਸ ਤਰ੍ਹਾਂ ਸਿੱਖ ਨੌਜਵਾਨਾਂ ਨੂੰ ਅਗਵਾ ਕਰਕੇ ਤਸ਼ੱਦਦ ਦਾ ਨਿਸ਼ਾਨਾ ਬਣਾਉਂਦਾ ਸੀ ਤੇ ਫਿਰ ਝੂਠੇ ਪੁਲਿਸ ਮੁਕਾਬਲਿਆਂ ਵਿੱਚ ਖਤਮ ਕਰ ਦਿੰਦਾ ਸੀ । ਉਸ ਦੀਆਂ ਇਹੋ ਜਿਹੀਆਂ ਕਾਰਵਾਈਆਂ ਸਦਕਾ ਹੀ ਇੱਕ ਜਥੇਬੰਦੀ ਨੇ ਸੈਣੀ ਨੂੰ ਖਤਮ ਕਰਨ ਲਈ ਇੱਕ ਧਮਾਕਾ ਕੀਤਾ ਜਿਸ ਵਿੱਚ ਕਿ ਸੈਣੀ ਬਚ ਗਿਆ ਤੇ ਉਸ ਨੂੰ ਮਾਮੂਲੀ ਜਿਹੀਆਂ ਸੱਟਾਂ ਲੱਗੀਆਂ । ਗੁਰਮੀਤ 'ਪਿੰਕੀ' ਸੈਣੀ ਨੂੰ ਹਸਪਤਾਲ ਮਿਲਣ ਲਈ ਗਿਆ ਤਾਂ ਸੈਣੀ ਨੇ 'ਪਿੰਕੀ' ਸਾਹਮਣੇ ਭਾਈ ਬਲਵਿੰਦਰ ਸਿੰਘ ਜਟਾਣਾ ਅਤੇ ਚਰਨਜੀਤ ਸਿੰਘ ਚੰਨੀ ਤੋਂ ਬਦਲਾ ਲੈਣ ਦੀ ਸਹੁੰ ਖਾਧੀ । ਸੈਣੀ ਨੂੰ ਸ਼ੱਕ ਸੀ ਕਿ ਇਹ ਹਮਲਾ ਇਹਨਾਂ ਦੋ ਸਿੰਘਾਂ ਨੇ ਅੰਜਾਮ ਦਿੱਤਾ ਹੈ । ਸੈਣੀ ਦੇ ਹੁਕਮਾਂ ਤੇ ਪਿੰਕੀ ਲੁਧਿਆਣੇ ਤੋਂ ਹਥਿਆਰ ਤੇ ਆਦਮੀ ਇੱਕੱਠੇ ਕਰਨ ਲਈ ਚਲਾ ਗਿਆ ਤਾਂ ਕਿ ਸੈਣੀ ਦੇ ਹੁਕਮਾਂ ਦੀ ਪਾਲਣਾ ਕੀਤੀ ਜਾ ਸਕੇ । ਜਦੋਂ ਅਜੇ ਪਿੰਕੀ ਇਹ ਸਭ ਕਰ ਹੀ ਰਿਹਾ ਸੀ ਤਾਂ ਇੱਕ ਹੋਰ ਬਦਨਾਮ 'ਕੈਟ' ਪੂਹਲਾ ਨੰਗ ਸੈਣੀ ਨੂੰ ਮਿਲਣ ਲਈ ਆਇਆ । ਪਿੰਕੀ ਨੂੰ ਬਾਅਦ ਵਿੱਚ ਵਾਪਸ ਆਉਂਦਿਆਂ ਨੂੰ ਪਤਾ ਲਗਾ ਕਿ ਸੈਣੀ ਵੱਲੋਂ ਬਦਲਾ ਲੈਣ ਦੀ ਸਹੁੰ ਖਾਣ ਦਾ ਮਤਲਬ ਕੀ ਸੀ । ਰਸਤੇ ਵਿੱਚ ਆਉਂਦਿਆਂ ਪਿੰਕੀ ਨੇ ਖਬਰ ਸੁਣੀ ਕਿ ਬਲਵਿੰਦਰ ਸਿੰਘ ਜਟਾਣਾ ਦੇ ਪਰਿਵਾਰ ਦੇ ਚਾਰ ਜੀਅ, ਜਿਸ ਵਿੱਚ ਇੱਕ ਛੋਟੀ ਉਮਰ ਦਾ ਬੱਚਾ ਵੀ ਸ਼ਾਮਲ ਸੀ, ਨੂੰ ਮੌਤ ਦੇ ਘਾਟ ਉਤਾਰ ਦਿੱਤਾ ਗਿਆ ਹੈ । ਕੁਝ ਸਾਲਾਂ ਬਾਅਦ ਪਿੰਕੀ ਪੂਹਲੇ ਨੂੰ ਜੇਲ੍ਹ ਵਿੱਚ ਮਿਲਿਆ ਤਾਂ ਉਸ ਨੇ ਪਿੰਕੀ ਨੂੰ ਦੱਸਿਆ ਕਿ ਉਹ ਸੈਣੀ ਨੂੰ ਹਸਪਤਾਲ ਵਿੱਚ ਮਿਲਿਆ ਸੀ ਤੇ ਸੈਣੀ ਨੇ ਉਸ ਨੂੰ ਜਟਾਣਾ ਦੇ ਪਰਿਵਾਰ ਨੂੰ ਖਤਮ ਕਰਨ ਲਈ ਕਿਹਾ ਸੀ । ਪਰ ਸੈਣੀ ਲਈ ਇਹ ਕਾਫੀ ਨਹੀਂ ਸੀ । ਚਰਨਜੀਤ ਸਿੰਘ ਚੰਨਾ ਦਾ ਇੱਕ ਭਰਾ ਰੋਪੜ ਪੁਲਿਸ ਵਿੱਚ ਹੈਡ ਕਾਂਸਟੇਬਲ ਦੇ ਤੌਰ ਤੇ ਨੌਕਰੀ ਕਰ ਰਿਹਾ ਸੀ । 

ਪਿੰਕੀ ਮੁਤਾਬਿਕ ਸੈਣੀ ਨੇ ਉਸ ਨੂੰ ਵੀ ਗੋਲੀ ਮਾਰਨ ਦਾ ਹੁਕਮ ਦਿੱਤਾ ਸੀ ।

ਪਿੰਕੀ ਇੱਕ ਹੋਰ ਨੌਜਵਾਨ ਜਸਬੀਰ ਸਿੰਘ ਉਰਫ 'ਪਿੰਕਾ ਮੁਹਾਲੀ' ਦੀ ਕਹਾਣੀ ਵੀ ਦੱਸਦਾ ਹੈ ਜਿਸ ਨੂੰ ਕਿ ਆਮ ਪੁੱਛਗਿੱਛ ਲਈ ਪੁਲਿਸ ਨੇ ਚੁੱਕਿਆ ਸੀ । ਜੋ ਕਿ ਪੁਲਿਸ ਵਿੱਚ ਆਮ ਹੀ ਸੀ, ਸੈਣੀ ਦੇ ਹੁਕਮਾਂ ਤੇ ਉਸ ਉੱਤੇ ਅੰਨੇਵਾਹ ਤਸ਼ੱਦਦ ਕੀਤਾ ਗਿਆ । ਪਰ ਜਦੋਂ ਉਸ ਕੋਲੋਂ ਕੋਈ ਜਾਣਕਾਰੀ ਪ੍ਰਾਪਤ ਨਾ ਹੋ ਸਕੀ(ਕਿਉਂਕਿ ਉਹ ਸੰਘਰਸ਼ ਵਿੱਚ ਸਿੱਧਾ ਸ਼ਾਮਲ ਨਹੀਂ ਸੀ) ਤਾਂ ਸੈਣੀ ਤੇ ਉਸ ਨੂੰ ਖਤਮ ਕਰਨ ਦਾ ਫੈਸਲਾ ਲਿਆ । ਪਹਿਲਾਂ ਉਸ ਨੇ ਹੁਕਮ ਦਿੱਤਾ ਕਿ ਜਸਬੀਰ ਸਿੰਘ ਦੇ ਮੂੰਹ ਵਿੱਚ ਸਾਇਆਨਾਈਡ ਦਾ ਕੈਪਸੂਲ ਪਾਇਆ ਜਾਵੇ ਪਰ ਉਸ ਨਾਲ ਜਸਬੀਰ ਸਿੰਘ ਦੀ ਮੌਤ ਨਾ ਹੋ ਸਕੀ ਕਿਉਂਕਿ ਕੈਪਸੂਲ ਖਰਾਬ ਹੋ ਚੁੱਕਾ ਸੀ । ਫਿਰ ਸੈਣੀ ਨੇ ਜਸਬੀਰ ਸਿੰਘ ਦੇ ਮੂੰਹ ਵਿੱਚ ਕੀਟਨਾਸ਼ਕ ਦਵਾਈ ਪਾਉਣ ਲਈ ਕਿਹਾ ਪਰ ਉਸ ਨਾਲ ਵੀ ਜਸਬੀਰ ਸਿੰਘ ਦੀ ਮੌਤ ਨਾ ਹੋ ਸਕੀ । ਦੋ ਕੋਸ਼ਿਸ਼ਾਂ ਅਸਫਲ ਰਹਿਣ ਤੋਂ ਖਿਝ ਕੇ ਸੈਣੀ ਨੇ ਆਪਣਾ ਸਰਵਿਸ ਰਿਵਾਲਵਰ ਬਾਹਰ ਕੱਢਿਆ ਤੇ ਜਸਬੀਰ ਸਿੰਘ ਦੇ ਸਿਰ ਵਿੱਚ ਗੋਲੀ ਮਾਰ ਕੇ ਉਸ ਨੂੰ ਮੌਤ ਦੇ ਘਾਟ ਉਤਾਰ ਦਿੱਤਾ ।

ਗੁਰਮੀਤ 'ਪਿੰਕੀ' ਹੋਰ ਬਹੁਤ ਸਾਰੇ ਮੌਕਿਆ ਦੀ ਜਾਣਕਾਰੀ ਦਿੰਦਾ ਹੈ ਜਿਸ ਵਿੱਚ ਕਿ ਪੁਲਿਸ ਨੇ ਸਿੱਖਾਂ ਨੂੰ ਚੁੱਕ ਕੇ ਤਸ਼ੱਦਦ ਕਰਨ ਤੋਂ ਬਾਅਦ ਮੌਤ ਦੇ ਘਾਟ ਉਤਾਰ ਦਿੱਤਾ । ਉਹ ਆਪ ਘੱਟੋ ਘੱਟ ਪੰਜਾਹ ਕਤਲਾਂ ਦਾ ਗਵਾਹ ਹੋਣ ਦੀ ਗੱਲ ਕਰਦਾ ਹੈ । ਜੋ SOPW ਦੇ ਪੇਜ ਨੂੰ ਨਿਯਮਿਤ ਰੂਪ ਵਿੱਚ ਦੇਖਦੇ ਹਨ ਉਹ ਪਿੰਕੀ ਵੱਲੋਂ ਦਿੱਤੇ ਗਏ ਬਿਆਨਾਂ ਤੋਂ ਅਚੰਭਿਤ ਨਹੀਂ ਹੋਣਗੇ ਪਰ ਇਹਨਾਂ ਖੁਲਾਸਿਆਂ ਨਾਲ ਪੰਜਾਬ ਪੁਲਿਸ ਦੀਆਂ ਜ਼ਿਆਦਤੀਆਂ ਬਾਰੇ ਉਪਲਬਧ ਸਬੂਤਾਂ ਵਿੱਚ ਹੋਰ ਵਾਧਾ ਹੁੰਦਾ ਹੈ ।ਇਸ ਸਾਰੇ ਖੁਲਾਸਿਆਂ ਤੋ ਜਿਹੜੀ ਗੱਲ ਅਚੰਭੇ ਵਾਲੀ ਹੈ ਉਹ ਇਹ ਕਿ ਭਾਰਤੀ ਨਿਆਂਪਾਲਿਕਾ, ਮੀਡੀਆਂ ਜਾਂ ਜਾਂਚ ਏਜੰਸੀਆਂ ਇਹਨਾਂ ਭ੍ਰਿਸ਼ਟ ਤੇ ਕਾਤਲ ਪੁਲਿਸ ਅਫਸਰਾਂ ਉੱਤੇ ਕਾਰਵਾਈ ਕਰਨ ਲਈ ਕੋਈ ਝੁਕਾਅ ਨਹੀਂ ਦਿਖਾ ਰਹੀਆਂ । ਜੇ ਕੋਈ ਪੁਲਿਸ ਵਾਲਾ ਪੀੜਤ ਪਰਿਵਾਰ ਜਾਂ ਮਨੁੱਖੀ ਅਧਿਕਾਰ ਜਥੇਬੰਦੀਆਂ ਦੀ ਕਰੜੀ ਘਾਲਣਾ ਤੋਂ ਬਾਅਦ ਜੇਲ੍ਹ ਵਿੱਚ ਚਲਾ ਵੀ ਗਿਆ ਤਾਂ ਉਹ ਸਾਰੇ ਨੀਵੇਂ ਦਰਜੇ ਦੇ ਪੁਲਿਸ ਅਧਿਕਾਰੀ ਹੀ ਸਨ ਤੇ ਜਿਹੜੇ ਦੋਸ਼ੀ ਪਾਏ ਗਏ ਉਹਨਾਂ ਨੂੰ ਜੇਲ੍ਹ ਵਿੱਚ ਵੀ ਉਹੀ ਤਨਖਾਹ ਮਿਲਦੀ ਰਹੀ ਜੋ ਪਹਿਲਾਂ ਮਿਲਦੀ ਸੀ ਤੇ ਉਹ ਬਾਅਦ ਤੱਕ ਮਿਲਦੀ ਹੀ ਰਹੀ । ਹਰ ਉਹ ਤਰੀਕਾ ਵਰਤਿਆ ਜਾਂਦਾ ਹੈ ਜਿਸ ਨਾਲ ਇਹਨਾਂ ਨੀਵੇਂ ਦਰਜੇ ਦੇ ਅਧਿਕਾਰੀਆਂ ਦਾ ਮੂੰਹ ਬੰਦ ਕੀਤਾ ਜਾ ਸਕੇ ਤੇ ਉਹ ਵੱਡੇ ਅਫਸਰਾਂ ਦਾ ਨਾਮ ਨਾ ਲੈ ਸਕਣ । ਇਸ ਕੰਮ ਲਈ ਉੱਚ ਦਰਜੇ ਦੇ ਵਕੀਲਾਂ ਦੀ ਮਦਦ ਲਈ ਜਾਂਦੀ ਹੈ, ਉਹਨਾਂ ਨੂੰ ਅਗੇਤੀ ਪੈਰੋਲ ਮਿਲ ਜਾਂਦੀ ਹੈ ਤੇ ਪੰਜਾਬ ਪੁਲਿਸ ਦੇ ਗੁਪਤ ਫੰਡ ਵਿੱਚੋਂ ਉਹਨਾਂ ਦੀ ਮਾਲੀ ਮਦਦ ਵੀ ਕੀਤੀ ਜਾਂਦੀ ਹੈ ।

ਭਾਰਤੀ ਜਸਟਿਸ ਸਿਸਟਮ ਵਿੱਚ ਅਜਿਹਾ ਕੋਈ ਵੀ ਇਨਸਾਨ ਨਹੀਂ ਹੈ ਜੋ ਇਹਨਾਂ ਭ੍ਰਿਸ਼ਟ ਅਤੇ ਕਾਤਲ ਪੁਲਿਸ ਅਫਸਰਾਂ ਖਿਲਾਫ ਲੜਾਈ ਲੜੇ ਤੇ ਉਹਨਾਂ ਨੂੰ ਦੋਸ਼ੀ ਕਰਾਰ ਦੇਵੇ । ਇਹਨਾਂ ਪੁਲਿਸ ਅਫਸਰਾਂ ਖਿਲਾਫ ਇੰਨੇ ਸਬੂਤ ਹੋਣ ਦੇ ਬਾਵਜੂਦ ਵੀ ਇਹ ਸਿਆਸੀ ਪਾਰਟੀਆਂ ਦੇ ਅੱਜ ਵੀ ਚਹੇਤੇ ਹਨ । ਕਿਤੇ ਇਹ ਤਾਂ ਨਹੀਂ ਕਿ ਭਾਰਤ ਸਰਕਾਰ ਇਹਨਾਂ ਪੁਲਿਸ ਅਫਸਰਾਂ ਦੇ ਕਾਰਨਾਮਿਆਂ ਬਾਰੇ ਪੂਰੀ ਤਰ੍ਹਾਂ ਜਾਣੂੰ ਹੈ ਕਿਉਂਕਿ ਉਹ ਪੰਜਾਬ ਪੁਲਿਸ ਨੂੰ ਬੜੀ ਵੱਡੀ ਪੱਧਰ ਤੇ ਵਿੱਤੀ ਫੰਡ ਮੁਹੱਈਆਂ ਕਰਾਉਂਦੀ ਹੈ । ਜੱਜ ਅਤੇ ਜਾਂਚ ਏਜੰਸੀਆਂ ਵੀ ਇਹਨਾਂ ਪੁਲਿਸ ਅਫਸਰਾਂ ਦੇ ਹੱਥਾਂ ਵਿੱਚ ਖੇਡਦੀਆਂ ਹਨ ਅਤੇ ਪੂਰੀ ਦੁਨੀਆ ਇਹ ਚੰਗੀ ਤਰ੍ਹਾਂ ਜਾਣਦੀ ਹੈ ਕਿ ਭਾਰਤੀ ਸਿਸਟਮ ਵਿੱਚ ਬਹਾਦਰ, ਇਮਾਨਦਾਰ ਤੇ ਸੁਤੰਤਰ ਇਨਸਾਨਾਂ ਦੀ ਬਹੁਤ ਵੱਡੀ ਘਾਟ ਹੈ ।

ਭਾਰਤ ਦੇ ਚਾਰ ਚੁਫੇਰੇ ਛਾਈ ਹੋਈ ਚੁੱਪ ਤੋਂ ਇਸ ਗੱਲ ਦੇ ਮਹੱਤਵ ਤੇ ਹੋਰ ਰੋਸ਼ਨੀ ਪੈਂਦੀ ਹੈ ਕਿ ਸਾਡੇ ਸਿਆਸਤਦਾਨਾਂ ਵੱਲੋਂ ਕੀ ਕੀਤਾ ਜਾਣਾ ਚਾਹੀਦਾ ਸੀ ਤੇ ਹੁਣ ਕੀ ਕਰਨਾ ਚਾਹੀਦਾ ਸੀ । ਨਾ ਸੁਖਬੀਰ ਬਾਦਲ ਤੇ ਨਾ ਹੀ ਅਮਰਿੰਦਰ ਸਿੰਘ ਨੇ ਪਿੰਕੀ ਦੇ ਖੁਲਾਸਿਆ ਪ੍ਰਤੀ ਕੋਈ ਸਹੀ ਬਿਆਨ ਦਿੱਤਾ ਹੈ ਜਦਕਿ ਦੋਨੋਂ ਹੀ 2017 ਵਿੱਚ ਪੰਜਾਬ ਦੀ ਗੱਦੀ ਤੇ ਬੈਠਣ ਲਈ ਕਸ਼ਮਕਸ਼ ਕਰ ਰਹੇ ਹਨ । ਇਹ ਦੋਨੋਂ ਇੱਕ ਦੂਜੇ ਤੋਂ ਅੱਗੇ ਵਧ ਕੇ ਭਾਈ ਜਗਤਾਰ ਸਿੰਘ ਹਵਾਰਾ ਅਤੇ ਉਹਨਾਂ ਦੇ ਸਾਥੀਆਂ ਨੂੰ 'ਅੱਤਵਾਦੀ' ਦਰਸਾ ਰਹੇ ਹਨ ਪਰ ਉਹ ਕਦੇ ਵੀ ਇਸ ਗੱਲ ਦਾ ਕੋਈ ਜਵਾਬ ਨਹੀਂ ਦਿੰਦੇ ਕਿ ਆਖਰ ਸਿੱਖਾਂ ਨੂੰ ਇਹੋ ਜਿਹੇ ਸਖਤ ਕਦਮ ਚੁੱਕਣ ਲਈ ਕਿਉਂ ਮਜ਼ਬੂਰ ਹੋਣਾ ਪਿਆ । ਸੁਖਬੀਰ ਬਾਦਲ ਦੀ ਸੈਣੀ ਨਾਲ ਨੇੜਤਾ ਹੈ ਤੇ ਕੈਪਟਨ ਅਮਰਿੰਦਰ ਸਿੰਘ ਬੇਅੰਤੇ ਨੂੰ ਪੰਜਾਬ ਦਾ ਮਹਾਨ ਮੁੱਖ ਮੰਤਰੀ ਮੰਨਦਾ ਹੈ । ਨਾਹੀ ਸੁਖਬੀਰ ਬਾਦਲ ਤੇ ਨਾਹੀ ਅਮਰਿੰਦਰ ਸਿੰਘ ਵਿੱਚ ਇੱਕ ਚੰਗੇ ਸਿੱਖ ਵਾਲੇ ਗੁਣ ਹਨ ਇਹ ਤਾਂ ਫਿਰ ਦੂਰ ਦੀ ਗੱਲ ਹੈ ਕਿ ਉਹ ਸਿੱਖਾਂ ਦੇ ਮਸਲਿਆਂ ਦੀ ਗੱਲ ਕਿਸ ਤਰ੍ਹਾਂ ਕਰਨਗੇ ਤੇ ਸਿੱਖਾਂ ਦੀ ਨੁੰਮਾਇਦਗੀ ਕਿਸ ਤਰ੍ਹਾਂ ਕਰਨਗੇ ।

ਇਸ ਗੱਲ ਨੂੰ ਸਮਝਣ ਲਈ ਕੋਈ ਬਹੁਤ ਵੱਡੇ ਦਿਮਾਗ ਦੀ ਲੋੜ ਨਹੀਂ ਹੈ ਕਿ ਕਿ ਜਦੋਂ ਤੱਕ ਇਹ ਕਾਤਲ ਤੇ ਭ੍ਰਿਸ਼ਟ ਤੱਤ ਪੰਜਾਬ ਪੁਲਿਸ ਵਿੱਚੋਂ ਕੱਢ ਨਹੀਂ ਦਿੱਤੇ ਜਾਂਦੇ ਅਤੇ ਉਹ ਆਪਣੇ ਕੀਤੇ ਦਾ ਮੁੱਲ ਨਹੀਂ ਤਾਰ ਦਿੰਦੇ ਉਦੋਂ ਤੱਕ ਪੰਜਾਬ ਤਰੱਕੀ ਨਹੀਂ ਕਰ ਸਕਦਾ । ਅੱਜ ਜਸਟਿਸ ਅਤੇ ਮਨੁੱਖੀ ਅਧਿਕਾਰਾਂ ਦੀ ਪਰਾਪਤੀ ਲਈ ਇੱਕ ਲਹਿਰ ਉਸਾਰਨ ਦੀ ਲੋੜ ਹੈ ।

ਇੰਡੀਅਨ ਐਕਸਪ੍ਰੈਸ ਦੇ ਸਾਬਕਾ ਪੱਤਰਕਾਰ ਕੰਵਰ ਸੰਧੂ ਨੇ ਗੁਰਮੀਤ 'ਪਿੰਕੀ' ਨਾਲ ਗੱਲ ਕੀਤੀ । ਇਹ ਗੱਲਬਾਤ ਛੇ ਹਿੱਸਿਆਂ ਵਿੱਚ ਹੈ ਤੇ ਯੂਟਿਊਬ ਦੇ ਹੇਠਲੇ ਲਿੰਕ ਤੇ ਜਾ ਕੇ ਦੇਖੀ ਜਾ ਸਕਦੀ ਹੈ

CHANDIGARH, PUNJAB (KP) - In the presence of human rights workers and media, a Sub-Inspector of the Punjab Police, Surjit Singh has openly exposed the systematic and widespread human rights abuses carried by Punjab police during 1980s-90s in Punjab.
                                                                                                         http://www.panthic.org/articles/5506

Surjit Singh has admitted before media that he killed 83 innocent Sikhs during early-1990s in Punjab. Surjit told media persons that during he was recruited into police training in 1989 and was deployed as a constable in 1990, and evealed that he was asked by senior police officers to killed Sikh youth who had already been in police custody. As a result of following these orders he was soon promoted as SHO of Police Station Mehta, he said.

He also stated that he was promoted as SHO of Mehta by SSP Paramjit Singh Gill, who is currently Commissioner of Police in Ludhaina. "I was a constable (sepoy) and I was promoted as SHO. What was the reason for it? -- that I and Gill Sahib both know", Surjit Singh told media persons while speaking in Punjabi.

He clearly stated that the high police officials directed him to carry out fake encounters and he got appreciation and promotions for carrying out these fake encounters. Surjit Singh admitted that he killed 83 Sikh youth in fake encounters on the directions of high ups in Punjab police.
According to media reports, Surjit Singh, has been suspended by Tarn Taran police due to these allegations, and claims that his life was in danger and from SSP Gill. He said that SSP Rajbir Singh Hundal had threatened to kill him. 'SSP Hundal threatened me that my dead body would be found in river', he added.

These disclosures have once against put the human rights abuses by Punjab police in focus, that were widespread and systematic during 1980s-1990s. Thousands of innocent Sikh youth were killed in custody. The Punjab police had invented a practise of 'staged encounter' or 'fake encounter' in which the police used to kill persons already in their custody and later staged a story that such persons were killed in a police encounter. The dead bodies of victims were secretly cremated by the Punjab police as 'unclaimed/unidentified dead bodies'.

Human Rights activist Jaswant Singh Khalra had exposed these abuses with documentary proof, and as a result of his relentless activism Jaswant Singh Khalra was killed during 'enforced disappearance'. Recently the Supreme Court of India confirmed that at least 2097 Sikhs were killed and secretly cremated by Indian security forces.

United Nations asked to probe killings of Sikhs in Punjab

In reaction to the SI Surjit's revelations, the Khalsa Human Rights, the human rights wing of the Sikh Federation (UK), has written to Professor Christof Heyn, the UN Special Rapporteur on extra judicial, summary or arbitrary executions following the confession last week by Sub-Inspector Surjit Singh of the atrocities committed by him and security forces in Punjab in the early 1990s.

A Khalsa Human Rights spokesman said: ‘We understand human rights activist Kirpal Singh Randhawa has said that the Punjab and Haryana High Court would be approached to obtain a CBI investigation into the matter.’

‘However, we do not think India can conduct an independent and impartial investigation into the atrocities that will result in the identification and prosecution of responsible police officers.’

‘We have therefore written to the UN Special Rapporteur who has recently criticized India to ensure international pressure is exerted on India.’

Bhai Amrik Singh, the Chair of the Sikh Federation (UK) added: ‘From what Surijit Singh has described these are clear cases of extrajudicial and arbitrary executions that are illegal and without due regard to the law or legal procedure as defined by the United Nations.’

‘Khalsa Human Rights are waiting for further information from lawyers and human rights activists about the 83 Sikh killed before submitting the Model Questionnaire developed by the Special Rapporteur as there is no need to exhaust domestic remedies in India before taking the matter to the United Nations.’

The Punjab and Haryana High Court has rejected to hear the petition to-day on 08-07-2013,  filed by suspended SI Surjit Singh of Punjab Police on fake encounters of Sikh youths against his seniors including former DGP KPS Gill. He has confessed the 83 killings in fake encounters.

Following is the list of persons killed by Surjit Singh SI in fake encounters at superior orders during early-mid-1990s in Majha region of Punjab:
*.Joginder Singh S/O Kulwant Singh, resident of Bagha

Just look at this picture of some Sikh youths killed in Police custody who were labelled as terrorists and then reported to be killed in fake encounters. The wounds, cuts and signs of burning on their bodies shows inhumane torture in Police custody, even then the Indian govt. calls we Sikhs the terrorists? 
Just assume who are the terrorists, whether we the peaceful living community-Sikhs or the agencies deployed by govt. of India to eliminate us and abolish our culture?



See the evidence how a Sikh youth aged only 14 years (Juvenile) was lodged in jail on 15th of may 1990 by then butchers state govt of Punjab. Since then he is behind bars. Does it not prove the allegation that Sikhs are framed on fabricated charges and locked behind bars on minor offences and not released for many years. some of them are compelled to meet their end behind bars like Pakistan does it with Indian prisoners. What does it indicate? Not that we Sikhs are not Indians? If so then what is our identity and where do we belong to? Whether we are not landless nation like Jews were before they were settled in middle east in Israel? Whether our coming generations shall also have to find out these answers and face the same tyranny which we are facing in India?


Major Singh, son of Nazar Singh, was working as an assistant to a Head Granthi (priest) in Gurdwara Sant Sahib Tarn Taran when it is reported he was picked up by SHO Sampuran Singh of police station Sadar, Tarn Taran. The abduction took place outside the house of Dilbagh Singh (SP Tarn Taran) on 7 September, 1993. Witnesses to the abduction include four men who were accompanying Major Singh; Hardial Singh (son of Mohinder Singh) of village Kajanpura (District Gurdaspur), Joginder Singh (son of Bawa Singh of village Threwal (Gurdaspur), Jasbir Singh Dimpa of village Lidhar (Amritsar), and Gurinder Singh of Tarn Taran. As Major Singh had not been produced in any court nor has he been released, Col. Surinder Sain wrote to the authorities on 19 November, 1993. According to Sukhvinder Singh, Major Singh's brother (who is also in the army posted in Kashmir), says his brother is not wanted in any case. Suhkvinder Singh has now filed a writ in the Punjab High Court to investigate the disappearance of his brother.

                             Major Singh after his release


We are delighted to announce the release of Bhai Major Singh who is believed to have been the longest serving Sikh political prisoner, serving in total twenty three years and one month in jail despite being totally innocent.
SOPW have been supporting Bhai Major Singh since he first came to our attention in 2009. We would like to thank those who also contributed in securing the release including Ex-Jathedar Jasbir Singh Rode, Bhai Parmjit Singh Dhadhi, Bhai Rajinderpal singh (R.P Singh) Adv Jaspal Singh Manjhpur and many others.

Our team spoke to Major Singh after he was released yesterday and true to his personality along with thanking the Sangat who have helped secure his release he appealed to the Sangat world-wide to please now focus on the other Sikhs that are still languishing in jails and ensure that they too are freed without any further delay.

It is without doubt that Major Singh has made an enormous sacrifice in honour of Sikhi but in all the time we have known him he has never allowed himself to become bitter or resentful he has remained humble and endured his sacrifice graciously and as a consequence he has needless to say won the hearts of all those that have ever come to know of him.





* WHICH CIVILISED COUNTRY LOCKS AWAY FOR DECADES - A GRANDFATHER, A FATHER AND A SON, FOR COMMITTING ABSOLUTELY NO CRIME? * ਕਿਹੜੇ ਲੋਕਤੰਤਰ ਪਸੰਦ ਮੁਲਕ 'ਚ ੲਿਕੋ ਪਰਿਵਾਰ ਦੇ ਨਿਰਦੋਸ਼ ਦਾਦਾ, ਪਿੳੁ ਤੇ ਪੁਤਰ ਨੂੰ ਕੲੀ ਦਹਾਕੇ ਜੇਲ੍ਹ ਵਿਚ ਸੁੱਟਿਅਾ ਜਾਂਦਾ ਹੈ ? *

How 3 generations of the same family have been brutalised by the Indian State:

* A Grandfather - Wassan Singh - INNOCENT, arrested at the age of 90, never returned home, died in prison aged 97.


* A Father - Gurmej Singh - INNOCENT, arrested in 1999, but it took the courts over 12 years to say he was innocent and set him free.

* A Brother - Balwinder Singh 'Binda' went missing in the '90's and has never been found.
* A Brother in law - Varyaam Singh - INNOCENT, arrested in 1990, has now been in prison for over 25 years WITHOUT any reprieve.

* A Son - Major Singh - INNOCENT - arrested at the age of 14, Sikh Relief fought his legal case and he was finally released in 2012.

Arrested in 1990 he was taken to a police station in Bareilly U.P where he was interrogated, severely tortured then thrown into Bareilly prison at the age of just fourteen as a suspected terrorist.

Bhai Major Singh’s family have all also sacrificed hugely for the Panth, his father Gurmej Singh (85) was first arrested in 1979 he was beaten tortured for ten days before being released; he was then rearrested May 1990 and imprisoned till 1996.

Mamma Ji (Uncle) Varayaam Singh (70) has been confined in Central Jail Bareilly since May 1990.

Dhadha Ji (Grandfather). Bhai Wasan Singh arrested in May 1990 he subsequently died in 1997 whilst in prison at the age of 97, from tuberculosis. Chacha Ji (Uncle) Ajit Singh arrested in 2008; spent six months in jail, he is currently on bail, the trial is on-going. Chacha Ji (Uncle) Balbinder Singh arrested at the age of 32 in May 1990, he endured ten days of police torture whilst in custody only then to be released and killed in a false police encounter in 1993.

SOPW will now be focusing on Major Singhs mamma ji Varayaam Singh’s release he too has been in prison for twenty three years.



"Disappearances" in Punjab
www.disappearances.org
‎...To be "disappeared" in India is of particular concern to human rights organisations. It is widely recognised that torture is routine in every one of India's 25 states. Every day in police cells and military barracks throughout the land pain and indignity are deliberately inflicted by paid agents ...


The Indian govt once again going to test the cowardice of Sikhs (mute spectators) by it's announcement to punish Bhai Balwant singh Rajoana on with death penalty 31st March 2012. It has declared to execute him on that day.

This is the same govt which earlier hanged innocent Kihar Singh in 1986 on charges of baptizing to Beant singhinto Sikhism by amrit ritual --the assassinator of Indira. He was killed after he surrendered to ITBP personals but co-accused Satwant Singh got wounded who was also hanged with kihar Singh on 6th Jan 1986 in Delhi.

The Rajiv Gandhi govt was keen to kill these legends but since then this Congress and Indian govt never punished the perpetrators of 1984 like Amitabh Bacchan, Jagdish Tytler, Sajjan kumar, Kamal Nath etc but they roam scot-free under protection of NSG commondos provided by this guilty Congress ruled Indian govt.

For the last 27 years none of these accused mass-murderers of thousands on innocent Sikhs is ever punished. The India doesn't did any justice with its massacred citizens. But the daughter of a colleague of Musolini - the Sonia maino is following footsteps of her mother-in-law and water the seeds of enmity sown by her late husband Rajiv Gandhi.

In 1984 the media was controlled by govt but now with new technologies it can cover any place , anywhere in the world. Bhai Balwant singh Rajoana did a wonderful job of valor by eliminating a brutal killer responsible for elimination of a complete Sikh youth generation.

With the help of his DGP KPS Gill. They killed nearly one million Sikh youths in Punjab within a decade from 1985 to 1995. So he (Balwant Singh Rajoana) did justice with the killed youths. The sinner Beant Singh met his fate he deserved but Rajoana is an ideal of Sikh youths throughout the world. His execution shall bring back the militancy in state and this time it wont stop without creation of a separate Sikh nation because we Sikhs do not trust this Hindu govt of India. It's enemy of minorities in India.

So it should change its decision of execution and honor the verdict of Sikhs and to meet their demand of justice to victims of 1984 and gravious punishment to the accused mass murderers.


AN INTRODUCTION TO............
THE ATROCITIES AND TERROR OF PUNJAB POLICE.

ARE YOU AWARE.....?


KPS GILL AND OTHER PUNJAB POLICE OFFICERS EXPOSED BY AN EX- BSF COMANDENT ( EYE WITNESS);

K P S Gill - MERCHANT OF CORPSES OF SIKH YOUTHS IN PUNJAB

Please do not call butcher to K P S Gill. It's very disgusting. Actually he did his job to secure his future and to decorate his shoulders with more medals so he did the business of selling corpses. He became a merchant of corpses. He could not kill the people of other community so he killed the youths of his own community. For to achieve his goal he killed the Sikh youths, flown them in deep waters, got appraisals from central govt - Congress and it's tout in Punjab- Beant Singh.

Now he is happy as Supreme Court held him guilty but due to his approach in high ups in the corridors of power, he was acquitted, no action was taken against him though the Court ordered to compensate  the families of victims but here too he helped the govt. Most of the family members were either eliminated by him or disappeared in his fear so compensation could not be paid.

It is instructive to note that in 1996 the Supreme Court of India upheld a finding by the Central Bureau of Investigation that 2,097 bodies had been cremated in three crematoriums on police orders without proper notification or documentation. One can only have a vague estimation of the scale of state sponsored terrorism unleashed against the Sikhs because these figures are but just the tip of a monumental iceberg.

Bibi Resham Kaur was picked up by Police to inquire about friends of her late husband but when she couldn't reveal anything, her 8 months old son was laid on Ice cube and killed by frozen and then bibi Resham Kaur was also killed by those brutal Police officials.

3 YEARS OLD TERRORIST KILLED AND HIS ARM WAS CHOPPED OFF.


Shaheed Bibi Harpreet Kaur Rano
Story of Harpreet Kaur:

By mid-1992, the Indian Police in Punjab had lost all sense of morality and considered human rights to be a joke. On June 25, 1992, 15-year-old Harpreet Kaur Rano was stopped while riding her bicycle in Amritsar’s Ghio Mandi.

Harpreet Kaur was very interested in the Sikh struggle and used to consider the Sikh fighters her brothers. When the newspaper would print a notice about the Shaheedi and bhog of a Sikh fighter, she would cut out their picture and keep it in her purse.

The police decided to search her purse. When the pictures were found, the excuse to arrest this young Sikh girl was found and she was taken directly to the famous torture center at BR Model School in Amritsar. She was put in the custody of Thanedar Darshan Lal who punished Harpreet Kaur for her “crime”. In that dark torture center, only Vahiguru knows what suffering and brutality Harpreet Kaur faced.


Despite her family’s best efforts to free her, the newspapers reported that Harpreet Kaur along with 3 other “terrorists” had been killed on June 27, 1992 near Sultanvind. Her body was not given to the family. The family went to the cremation grounds at Durgiana Mandir and in one pile of ashes, Harpreet Kaur’s sister recognized a Kara. The two sisters used to wear identical Karas and the ashes were recognized as Harpreet Kaur’s. No justice was ever expected or delivered for this cold-blooded murder.

Excerpt from SikhUnit

Such was his horror. So what if he was made President of Hockey sangh where he ruined the carrier of Dhanraj Pillay and spoiled whole team, played with pride of India but he is respected by ruling party and honored time to time so what for this if he had to kill one hundred thousand of Sikh youths. If he is given charge again, he is ready to repeat the process of killing Sikh youths in Punjab.
If you have any doubt, you may confirm from him?


Know the truth of petty criminal K P S Gill, how the Sikh youths were taken blind folded, killed by Punjab police with CRPF and then the dead were declared terrorists.


The started another story to harass the family of deceased, arrest their family members for extortion, pick their helpless women-whisk them away and rape them.



See the buttocks of these Sikh youths which are burnt by hot Iron--is there no one to see this inhuman torture on Sikh youths. All this happened when K P S Gill was Director General of Punjab Police.


AVTAR SINGH SHATRANA

It was not only the militants who were being killed by the police in its custody but their sympathisers and relations were no exception. Avtar Singh Shatrana’s death in custody is a glaring example of this nature.

Avtar Singh was the brother of Jarnail Singh Shatrana, Lt. General of the Khalistan Commando Force (Panjwar Group) from Shatrana village in Patiala district. He was also a candidate for Punjab Assembly from the Lehra Gaga constituency. He was picked up by the Patran police party led by its SHO (Inspector) Sukhwinder Singh from the Patran Road on July 25, 1991 at 10 AM along with his scooter and taken to Patran police station. He was shifted to CIA, Patiala the same day. He was seen in custody among many by Gurnam Singh of Paind village and Ajit Singh, a PRTC Station Conductor, Patran.

Later, the police came out with a story that Avtar Singh was killed in an encounter between a police party led by Patiala CIA Inspector Gurnam Singh and militants close to Avtar Singh near Gurdialpura Bir on August 6. According to the police FIR, CIA Inspector Gurnam Singh arrested Avtar Singh on August 6 in the morning. Avtar Singh on a brief interrogation, disclosed to the police party that some top militants were scheduled to meet him on that day at 10 AM at a specific place. The police party along with Avtar Singh proceeded to that place in a Gypsy jeep. An encounter took place there (near Gurdialpura Bir village) for three hours. Avtar Singh was killed in the cross firing.

However, IHRO investigations into the matter suggested otherwise:


Avtar Singh was killed in custody. He was in police detention since July 25. At least three persons had seen him in the police custody. Moreover, on August 5, the advisor to the Punjab Governor categorically told a five-member delegation of the Shatrana village council at Chandigarh that he had talked to the concerned police officials. Avtar Singh, he assured, would be released or produced in court, as the case may be, on August 6. All these facts showed that he was killed in custody.


The body of Avtar Singh bore torture and burn marks, there was no bullet injury on the body:

These revelations are made by an Asstt. Commandent of BSF who himself witnessed the actions of Punjab Police. His these words are like his statement and confession. Why does the Cheif Justice of India not accept it as his confession and orders to arrest KPS Gill and other Police officers whose names are revealed by Arindamjit Singh on SUO-MOTTO basis as the action was taken in RUCHIKA suicide case against DIG Rathaur?
Gurmeet Kaur--- 14 years old girl was whisked away by police from her home and then raped in police station whole night by Police officers in Punjab and when released next day---she committed suicide. no action is ever taken against guilty Police officials.
That was the reason when Supreme Court accepted killings of 25000 Sikh youths in one district of Amritsar and ordered to compensate their families who couldn't be traced. Either they were eliminated by Gill Jundli (associates) or they disappeared in fear but Gill was not punished. He was dearer of North Block so Supreme Court also didn't punish him.

Some of Police officers are still eating their bread in the name of militancy and extortion is in practice inPunjab by arresting Sikh youths and then kill them in fake encounters.

Such is the dilemma of Punjab and Badal is whistling like Neero whistled when Romewas burning.

If no action is taken against these guilty Police officials that will prove that the Indian judiciary is working under influence of ruling party-Congress and there will be no justice with the Sikh youths killed by Police. This may go on in future also if no voice is raised.

I request Sangat TV and other Video makers to dub this video in Hindi and English too so that world may come to know the injustice with Sikhs in India and that's the reason we Sikhs wish and demand our own separate nation out of India.

Please see the allegations made and confession by a retired senior officer of Border Security Force who himself witnessed these fake encounters. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MCgkl5VHZ9A&feature=player_embedded#!


The Centre's decision to strip police officers convicted of 'moral terpitude' of medals and awards fuelled a demand by an ex-woman IAS officer today that the Padma Shri award be taken back from Punjab's former 'supercop' KPS Gill convicted for molesting her. http://www.deccanherald.com/content/45085/supercop-kps-gill-lose-his.html

Gill was in 1996 found guilty of outraging modesty of Bajaj by a trial court after she complained in 1988 that the police officer "pinched" her "posterior" at a party where he was alleged to be drunk. He was convicted for outraging the modesty of a lady IAS officer.

He ia also alleged for killing thousands of Sikh youths in Punjab and wiped out a complete Sikh youth generation in Punjab. Jaswant Singh Khalra, a human right's activist collected evidences of more than 25000 Sikh youths killed by Punjab Police under command of KPS Gill.

Supreme Court ordered Punjab govt to pay compensation to the berieved families but these families could not be traced and comepensation were paid to very few people. These families either were killed or disappeared in fear of him but this man was not punished for these killings
BBC reports that many see Gill as a hero, there are accusations that Gill and the forces under his command were responsible for human rights violations "... in the name of stamping out terrorism.
Bibi Gurjeet Kaur was arrested in 1988 and spent two years in prison; one year at Nabha Jail and two years at Sangrur Jail. Upon her release, she was then re-arrested in 1990 in Ferozepur and spent nine months and seven days in prison. Please note, during her ordeal in prison, she was subjected to third degree torture.
This was not the end of her suffering. Bibi Gurjeet Kaur’s Husband, 4 sons and her daughter were killed by the police, within the year of her release.
Their details are as follows:
1)-Gurmej Singh 2)- Tarlokh Singh 3)- Kashmir singh 4)- Jasvinder Kaur 5)- Jaspal Singh 6)-Daljinder Singh*

* Disappeared on 3/11/91. He was taken into police custody and tortured for 11 days in Ferozepur jail. Bibi Gurjeet Kaur was told by the authorities that Daljinder Singh was killed in a fake ‘Police encounter.’



In May 1988, he commanded Operation Black Thunder to flush out militants hiding in the Golden Temple. Compared to Operation Blue Star, little damage was inflicted on the Golden Temple.In what was reported as a successful operation, around 200 Sikhs surrendered, 41 were killed and 2 committed suicide.
1991 saw the peak of violence in Punjab, with more than 5000 reported killed. In 1992, the Indian government, "intent on retaking Punjab from terrorism", appointed KPS Gill chief of the police in Punjab. The police and army instituted a crackdown, and In 1993, The New York Times reported, the people of Punjab no longer feared the Sikh "rebels or gangs", but instead feared the army and police.
Jaswant Singh Khalra was a human rights activist who was taken into custody by Punjab Police on 6 September 1995. Human Rights Watch reported that a September 11, 1995 writ of habeas corpus from the Supreme Court was presented to DGP Gill, and officials denied that police had detained him. (2005 testimony by Special Police Officer Kuldeep Singh indicated that Gill later visited Khalra in October 1995, a few days before Khalra was killed).
In 2005, Special Police Officer Kuldeep Singh testified in court that in October 1995, after Khalra had been beaten and tortured, and bore the signs of torture on his body, then-DGP KPS Gill visited Khalra at SSP Ajit Singh Sandhu's home. He further testified that Gill remained with Khalra in the room for "half an hour", that a few days later Khalra was killed, and finally that on the way back to Jhabal police station after disposing of the body, he was told that Khalra could have saved himself if he had listened to the advice of KPS Gill.

Human Rights Watch and Ensaaf (another human rights organization focused on Punjab), argue that KPS Gill had knowledge of Khalra's illegal detention, could reasonably have been expected to have knowledge of his torture, and had the authority and responsibility to order Khalra's release, which would have prevented Khalra's death.

On November 18, 2005, six Punjab police officials were convicted and sentenced to seven years imprisonment for Khalra’s abduction and murder. On October 16, 2007, a division bench of Punjab and Haryana High Court chaired by Justices Mehtab Singh Gill and A N Jindal extended the sentence to life imprisonment for four of those convicted: Satnam Singh, Surinder Pal Singh, Jasbir Singh (all former Sub Inspectors) and Prithipal Singh (former Head Constable).

Human Rights Watch noted that one case under investigation in 2007 by India's National Human Rights Commission focused on allegations that "thousands" had been killed and cremated by security forces throughout Punjab.
