Get a sitting SC judge or Independent probe to investigate Kotkapura, Behbal Kalan incidents: Sukhbir Shiromani Akali Dal (SAD) president Sukhbir Singh Badal said here today that the Congress government in the state was “misusing the SIT on  Kotkapura and Behbal Kalan incidents for settling political scores. “In the light of this brazen politicization of the probe by the Congress government,we demand that the probe be handed over either to a sitting judge of the Supreme Court or to an independent investigative agency. Only then  can a fair probe be conducted into these incidents.” Kotkapura Get a sitting SC judge or Independent probe to investigate Kotkapura “The real motive behind  the entire Congress exercise is not to bring the truth out but  to weaken  the Sikh institutions including the SAD,  and thus render the Sikhs leaderless. But what else can be expected from the Congress party which rolled tanks into Sri Harmandar Sahib, destroyed Sri Akal Takhat Sahib, put hundreds of saroops of Shri guru granth Sahib to flames and killed thousands of innocent Sikhs in 1984. “Condemning the harassment of the Akali leader Mantar Sigh Brar by the SIT, the SAD president said this was being done under political instructions to go after Akali leaders.” Everybody knows that Mantar was only an MLA at that time and had no role whatsoever in the matter”.

He said that his party did not cooperate with  the Ranjit Singh Commission as its findings were announced even before its institution by Amarinder and PPCC leader Sunil Jakhar. “This is why we did not cooperate with the Commission. Now again the manner in which SIT has set about harassing Mr Mantar Brar makes it clear that it is following the footsteps of the Congress Commission headed by  Ranjit Singh”.

Our hopes have however been belied. Just like Ranjit Singh’s Congress Commission, the SIT has become a tool of the Congress party to indulge in the vendetta politics. The SIT officers are being openly directed by Chief Minister Capt Amarinder Singh and his ministerial colleagues to implicate Akali leaders in the tragic firing incidents. Only a sitting judgeof the SC or an independent investigating agency can bring the truth out”. - PTC NEWS-
