DW BUREAU / Chandigarh The Shiromani Akali Dal (SAD) today charged the Congress government of using the 'personal opinion' of a police officer who was related to former minister Bikram Majithia and had an axe to grind with him to register a FIR against the latter and demanded that inquiries done at the instance of high court subsequent to the report submitted by STF head Harpreet Sidhu be made public. Addressing a press conference here, SAD Spokesman Parambans Singh Romana also released Mr Harpreet Sidhu's admission that he was related to Mr Bikram Majithia and that he was not on speaking terms with Mr Majithia's family since fifteen years. He said despite this the fabricated FIR registered against Mr Majithia had relied on the report of Mr Sidhu which the latter himself admitted was an opinion and not an investigation. "The officer has admitted that he based his report on the record of the Enforcement Directorate. If that is so the ED was competent to file a challan against Mr Majithia in case they had found anything incriminating against him. They did not do so". Mr Parambans Romana also disclosed that the trial in the case which Mr Sidhu was referring to ? that is the Jagdish Bhola case ? had ended in January 2019. "Even convictions were done in the case with Bhola and one Jagjit Chahal being convicted even as the third accused Bittu Aulakh was acquitted". He said despite this factual position, Sidhu's report stated that Bittu Aulakh was instrumental in making the accused persons meet Mr Majithia. Going further, Mr Romana said after Sidhu's report, the Punjab and Haryana high court had appointed a committee to go through the STF report. He said the report of the committee comprising the then ACS Home and the State DGP was also lying in a sealed cover in the high court. "This should also be made public". He also disclosed that the accused in the drugs case ? Chahal and Aulakh had also approached the high court and it had appointed a three member SIT of Inspector General's of Police (IGs) to revisit all the cases and submit its report and had also directed the SIT to exonerate accused if needed and add fresh accused if any had been left out. "The SIT filed ten supplementary challans in the case and also submitted its final report. This should also be made public", Mr Romana added. (editor@dailyworld.in)
