Patiala, April 18 The Crime Investigation Agency (CIA) of the Nabha police claimed to have solved two blind murder cases with the arrest of three persons. The accused have been identified as Subham Kumar, alias Aman Daglus; Ranjit Kumar, alias Nata, and Rohit Kumar Chilli, all hailing from Nabha. Addressing the media, Patiala SSP S Bhupathi said Monika, a Nabha resident, had lodged a complaint with the police that her 25-year-old son Sushil Kumar was missing. His body was recovered from a canal near Mehas. “The police recovered his body with his neck and legs tied with a shoe lace and hands with a belt. The case remained unsolved after which it was shifted to Inspector Shaminder Singh to collect more evidence,” he said. The investigation zeroed in on the trio as the police had got a tip-off that the three accused were the ones last seen with the victim. “They were apprehended. Later, they confessed to the crime. They took Sunil to the Mehas canal bridge on the pretext of having liquor and murdered him,” said Shaminder Singh. The SSP said the motive behind the murder was that Subham had a bad eye Sunil’s sister. “As Sunil objected to it, Shubham, along with his friends, hatched a conspiracy to kill him,” said Bhupathi. Moreover, during questioning, two of the accused revealed that they were involved in the murder case of Roshan Lal, aka Tota. The case is pending since December 28, 2016. “Aman Kumar and Ranjit Kumar admitted that they called Roshan Lal to a vacant plot near Khatra Colony in Nabha and murdered him by strangling his neck with his turban and then took the body on their bike to the Mehas railway bridge,” said the SSP. “They threw his dead body on the railway track and left,” he said. The two had allegedly murdered Roshan Lal as they had a quarrel with him a few days before the crime and they wanted to avenge the insult.
