The National Investigating Agency (NIA) today procured three-day police remand of Ramandeep, alias Canadian, alias Bagga, and Hardeep Singh, alias Shera, alias Pehalwan, in a case of murder of Satpal Sharma and his son Ramesh at Khanna in February this year.

Both the miscreants, who are also accused in the RSS leader Ravinder Gosain murder case, were produced in a special court under tight security here today.

The NIA’s public prosecutor said the three-day police remand of the two accused was procured on a plea of recovery of the weapons used in the murder of the father-son duo, who were followers of Dera Sacha Sauda. He added that the accused had already confessed to their crime.

Satpal Sharma and Ramesh Sharma were shot dead at the dera canteen in Jaghera village of Khanna on February 25 this year and an FIR was registered at the Malaudh police station in this regard.
