CHANDIGARH, Punjab—Sharply reacting to the unjust verdict addressed by a Nawanshahr Court against three Sikh youths, the Khalra Mission Organization has shot a letter to the Chief Justice of Punjab & Haryana High Court seeking his intervention in the case. Notably, three Sikh youths namely Arwinder Singh (Nawashahr), Surjit Singh (Gurdaspur) and Ranjit Singh (Kaithal, Haryana) were addressed life sentence by the Nawanshahr Court just for possessing printed biography of Shaheed Bhai Sukhdev Singh Babbar, photographs of 13 martyred Sikhs of 1978 and a mobile phone.
The Court had held them guilty under sections 121 (waging, or attempting to wage war, or abetting waging of war, against the Government of India) and 121-A (conspiring to commit offences punishable by section 121) of the Indian Penal Code.
The Khalra Mission Organization has termed the move as a gross violation of the Indian constitution.
The KMO leaders have appealed the Chief Justice of Punjab & Haryana High Court to personally intervene in the matter and take action against the Judge who crushed the fundamental rights of these Sikh youths.
