Chandigarh: Punjab government is claiming that more than 60 persons from the CRPF, Punjab Police and Chandigarh Police posted in Z+ security of former DGP are clueless about his whereabouts as he has gone underground along with his family.

Sumedh Saini is booked for abduction and murder of Balwant Singh Multani.

Statements by Punjab government officials and media reports are trying to divert the attention by triggering a debate that whether or not Sumedh Saini’s security is withdrawn?

Totally incorrect that security of ex-DGP Sumedh Saini & family has been withdrawn. Fact is they have all gone underground after he was charged with murder in extra-judicial killing case, leaving behind the security personnel. His security cops still present at his residence.

The issue is that how a person guarded all time by five dozen personnel went underground leaving his guards clueless about his whereabouts?

When the Punjab government, Indian police and agencies claim that they could watch across borders and know about alleged conspiracies being hatched overseas, why are they clueless about Sumedh Saini’s whereabouts?

It is clear that Capt. Amarinder Singh led Punjab government is helping Sumedh Saini by not ensuring his arrest and further making sure that he gets time to move to high courts.
