Police captures 2 inmates of juvenile home
Hoshiarpur, November 19 Addressing mediapersons here this afternoon, SP (D) Randhir Singh Uppal said a special naka was set up at Chack Sadhu, 12 kms from here, since yesterday after fleeing of six juvenile delinquents from the Bal Sudhar Ghar. At 10.30 am today, the policemen noticed two youths coming on foot from Una side. As soon as they saw the police party, the boys took a u-turn and ran towards the Una side. The police party which had photographs of all the escaped juvenile delinquents after a brief chase caught them. They were identified as Tarsem Lal (18), son of Tara Singh of Umarpur (Batala), and Balraj Singh (16), son of Jagir Singh of Nathuana, Jandiala Guru. During their search, the police seized one dagger from Balraj Singh. Their preliminary interrogation revealed that the juvenile delinquents, led by Shamir Ahmed Dar (16), son of Abdul Rasid Dar of Gardibag Pulbama (Jammu and Kashmir), hatched the plan to flee from the Bal Sudhar Ghar about a week ago. Yesterday, as they found favourable conditions, they escaped in two groups. Sohal Huk (16), son of Jalil Huk of Gobindpur, district Dinaspur, Bangladesh, Rasid Ali (16), son of Habib Ahmed of Faridkot in Rai Bareilly in Uttar Pradesh, Shamir Ahmed Dar and Rajesh Kumar, son of Ruldu Ram of Sardarpur (Pathankot) in one group came out first from the Bal Sudhar Ghar after breaking the iron bars of the grille. After 7 minutes of their escaping Tarsem Lal and Balraj Singh also came out from the ghar and fled. Randhir Singh Uppal said Balraj Singh’s father Jagir Singh came to the Bal Sudhar Ghar at 12 noon yesterday. He gave some money to his son. After escaping, Tarsem Singh and Balraj Singh went to the dargah of Peer Nigaha near Una in Himachal Pradesh to pay their obeisance. Thereafter, Balraj Singh purchased a dagger for committing a robbery. Due to their apprehension of checking of bus passengers by the police, both were coming on foot. All the escaped delinquents were undertrials in various cases of crime, including murder and kidnapping. Following the recovery of a dagger from them, a separate FIR No 168 under sections 25, 54 and 59 of the Arms Act had been registered in the Sadar police station today. Efforts were being done to nab the remaining juvenile delinquents.
