Carried weapon
I saw the CCTV footage of the incident. Vicky was not carrying his licensed weapon on him. He usually never forgot to carry his weapon even to the washroom.

Having passion for politics even during his school days in Chandigarh, Middukhera was known for getting students’ issues resolved promptly. However, he was also involved in occasional brawls.
During his college days, he joined the Student Organisation of Panjab University (SOPU), before becoming its president.
He later joined SAD’s student wing Student Organisation of India (SOI). Considering his popularity, SAD chief Sukhbir Singh Badal elevated him to the post of SOI’s Chandigarh unit president. During the last SAD-BJP government, Middukhera was appointed director of the Youth Development Board.
Middukhera remained close to key politicians of Punjab, Haryana and other states. Besides, some Punjabi singers were his close friends.
He had actively campaigned for SAD candidates in the Assembly and parliamentary elections. During Harsimrat Kaur Badal’s Lok Sabha election from Bathinda in 2019, Middukhera held the charge of the youth brigade.
His father Gurdial Singh is a former sarpanch of Middukhera village in Lambi Assembly segment here.
