Mohali, November 2

The Sohana police recovered the body of a 28-year-old man from Sambhalki village here yesterday. The police have registered a case of culpable homicide against an unknown person in this regard.

The deceased has been identified as Jaskaran Singh. He hailed from Chhehrata village in Amritsar and was putting up in a rented accommodation in Chandigarh.

According to the police, Jaskaran went missing on October 29. His body was recovered from the bushes near the Sambhalki village road T-point here.

Jaskaran’s father Balwinder Singh alleged that his son was living in a rented accommodation in Chandigarh since 2012. He had a dispute with his wife for the past several months, following which they got separated. I doubt that one of the members of his in-laws’ family had killed my son.

Balwinder demanded proper probe in the case so that the real culprits could be put behind bars.

Investigating officer Sub-Inspector Harjinder Singh said: “Investigation is on to nab the suspect. A case has been registered.”
