Notorious gangster Jaggu Bhagwanpuria was questioned on his alleged links with other gangsters and terror groups in Kashmir, Pakistan and other places in connection with an attack on a Shiv Sena leader and murder of an Akali sapranch, Dalbir Singh Dhilwan.

Also, he was asked about the recovery of a mobile phone from him in the Patiala Central Jail. Though senior officials are tight-lipped, sources said Jaggu hinted at a network of gangsters, drugs smugglers and terror groups operating in Kashmir and other places. Bhagwanpuria, who returned to the Patiala jail today, had tested positive for Covid on May 5, though he did not show any symptoms of cough and cold in police custody.

Later, his test reports came out negative. He was first questioned in Batala district and later in Mohali. — TNS
