Notably, the Kiratpur Sahib police had booked Dhaddi and two others for abetment to suicide on April 27 after the body of a local youth was found in the Bhakra canal.
As per sources, he is currently in jail.
Deepak Tandon had been missing since April 21. He had sent a message to some of his acquaintances through WhatsApp alleging that Koki Lala, Kamikkar Singh and Sarabjit Bhatoli would be responsible for his death.
