Gangster Shot by rival gang:
A criminal, Sukha
Kahlwan, was shot dead in the presence of six policemen allegedly by a rival
gang at Paddi Khalsa village near Goraya
today. He was being taken to Nabha jail after a court hearing in Jalandhar.Kahlwan
was facing more than 40 cases of murder, dacoit and robbery in Punjab,
Haryana and Rajasthan. The role of the policemen accompanying Sukha has come under the scanner as they failed to
fire even a single shot in
retaliation. They were carrying two carbines with adequate ammunition. Sources said after a long chase around 4:30 pm, unidentified
assailants travelling in a black Endeavour car shot at and flattened a tyre of the police Gypsy that carried
Kahlwan. The moment the policemen
alighted from the vehicle, the assailants fired over a dozen bullets at Sukha. Sources said the rival
gang only left after ensuring
Sukha was dead. Kunwar Vijay Pratap, Deputy Inspector General, Jalandhar range, confirmed the police did not
fire in retaliation. He said an inquiry
had been ordered into the case.“We
are trying to identify the gang behind the attack. An inquiry has
been initiated to look into why the armed police
team failed to respond,” he said.
The Punjab Police arrested Sukha from Delhi in 2012, but he escaped from custody in Ropar while being taken for a court hearing. Sukhha was once attacked by his rivals in Rajasthan, an incident that had left his two accomplices dead. He survived another attack when one of his aides, Yameen, stabbed him and considering him dead, threw him into the Yamuna at Kanpur.In 2012, he was arrested by the West Bengal police from Howrah. He also remained in the Haryana Police’s custody — had robbed a Hisar jeweler of 4-kg gold — for some time, before being handed over to the Punjab Police in 2013. Lodged in Kapurthala jail, he had landed the prison staff in trouble by uploading two videos on his Facebook fan page titled ‘Sukha Kahlon sharp shooter’. He then posted a violent video of him brutally beating up a fellow prisoner. They also expressed doubts over the police theory that the gangsters had disarmed the cops by snatching their carbines which were later found thrown a little distance away from the site of crime....
