Ludhiana, December 4
British citizen Jagtar Singh Johal has confessed to his involvement in funding target killings of Hindu leaders in the state. This was claimed by the local police in a court here today.
The police claimed that Johal had admitted to have hatched the conspiracy to disturb peace and revive militancy in the state. In this connection, funds were transferred to Jimmy.
Johal was produced before a local court in connection with a firing incident at RSS Shakha at Kidwai Nagar, Ludhiana in 2016. Judicial Magistrate Gurpreet Kaur extended his police remand for a day.
Meanwhile, the police arrested Taljit Singh aka Jimmy in this case following revelations by Johal. He was taken on police remand for two days.
Defence lawyer Jaspal Singh Manjpur opposed the plea of police remand of the accused. — TNS
