Speaking to Sikh24, Bapu Ajaib Singh (father of victim Kuldeep Singh) saidd that his son Kuldeep Singh was abducted from Morinda on October 24, 1990 by a team of Punjab police. He added that on May 15, 1991 he read a report in the papers in which the then SSP (Patiala) SK Sharma had claimed Kuldeep Singh was killed in an encounter at Tholiwal village of Barnala Police constituency on May 1.

“The SSP SK Sharma had alleged Kuldeep Singh’s involvement in cases of extortion and robberies”, said Bapu ji.

Bapu Ajaib Singh also said that the concerned Police station had confirmed in writing with the National Human Rights Commission and United Nation that the victim Kuldeep Singh was not wanted in any case.

It is pertinent to note here that it took long time for the victim family to get the charges brought against the Police and the family had to fight a long legal war.

The Courts had charged the Police under section 364 (kidnapping or abducting with intention of murder), 302 (murder), 201 (causing disappearance of evidence of offence) and 120-B (criminal conspiracy) of Indian Penal Code.

Terming the Court’s verdict as an injustice to the family, Bapu Ajaib Singh said that he would challenge the Session Court’s verdict in the Punjab & Haryana High Court.

  1. It is not the fault of India.
    It is the laws made by Empire and given to it as a constitution.
    Any place on planet where an armed rebellion begins.
    The Standard operating procedure is a Genocide for civilians and military operation against the rebel.
    My advise is don’t rebel any where on planet EARTH .
    If you love to rule then become a citizen of EMPIRE.

    • ‘It is not the fault of India’. There you have your bold faced brazen genocide denial and apologist credentials laid bare. The mass murders of Sikhs were carried out by Indian polity, police and endorsed by Indian judiciary but it is not the fault of India. All Indians can then breath a sigh of relief as there is no stain on their honour and no need for their consciences to be pricked or for them to feel shame on behalf of the nation. No crimes against humanity were carried out against the Sikhs by Indians. Dangerous fantasy which ex-Nazis used after the world war to state there were no gas chambers and if there were they did not know about them so the honour of the SS and Wehrmacht was somehow intact

  2. This Justice for the Sikhs – DISGRACEFUL and the Indian should bury its head in shame – Where is the justice the Police are given freedom to go on killing of innocents – why is the world so blind to this INDIA you think you are getting away with this – you will pay the price SIKHS will be given justice by the Akal Purakh.
    Anyone who supports Human Rights should boycott India for ever………….We hate you INDIA and are not part of you……………

    • “I’m sorry” is a statement. “I won’t do it again” is a promise. “How do I make it up to you” is a responsibility. I am afraid with your genocide denial and apologist statements on this very website you are not ready for truth and reconciliation as you cannot even bring yourself to say sorry. A drunkard cannot hope to cure his alcoholism if he is not even prepared to admit to himself he has a drinking problem and instead blames the barman for serving him.

      • I have never denied the Genocide.
        The Genociders are protected by the Empire.
        So justice won’t come through as the Empire dealt the Indira-Bhinderwala Punjab as a rebellion in it’s realm.
        The only way to deal with such a problem is by” Resurrection” not withstanding the fact that the word is associated with Christian theology.

      • You constantly deny the genocide by making up justification for it and by distorting historical facts effectively saying Sikhs got what they deserved as a tit-for-tat reaction form the State. your denial extends to refusing to accept that the human rights abuses and crimes against humanity committed against the Sikhs were done by Indians in the name of India and these culprits are still protected by the Indian State through its polity and judiciary. You keep talking of Sikh ‘rebellion’ which contrary again to the facts completely ignoring how Sikhs ended up being part of India, the Anandpur Sahib Resolution as well as the proxy murder of Sikhs in 1978 which also makes you a genocide apologist. Your concept of resurrection is for Sikhs to shrug off the bitter memory of mass murder committed against them which compounds your apologist and denial mentality.
