Harpreet case: trace guard, orders CBI

NEW DELHI, Oct 16 (PTI) — In a significant development in the mysterious death of Harpreet Kaur, teenaged daughter of SGPC chief Bibi Jagir Kaur, the CBI has asked the Punjab Police to trace her personal security officer Nishan Singh for questioning.

Highly-placed sources in the agency said the police had been asked to look for Nishan and direct him to the CBI's special investigation unit for questioning in the case.

Nishan, who has been named by the CBI in the first information report as one of the conspirators in the case, had so far not made himself available to the CBI for questioning, the sources said.

They said though no arrest warrant had been issued against him, the CBI wanted to question him in connection with the case.
