Moga/ Ludhiana: Ramandeep Singh and Hardeep Singh Shera, who were arrested by Baghapurana police few days back, were sent to jail under judicial custody today. Defence council Advo. Jaspal Singh Manjhpur said that duo were presented before a magistrate by Baghapurana police who committed them to police custody.
“Given the fact that the Punjab police has made statements about their alleged involvement in other cases also, I suspect that the police belonging to those police stations could take them on remand anytime”, he added.
