Cops to write to district magistrates
Tribune News Service

Chandigarh, March 15
The police will write to district magistrates across the region to trace the owner of the pistol, which was found abandoned at the Gurdev parking lot in Sector 17 here last night.

Talking to the Chandigarh Tribune, the SHO of the Sector 17 police station, inspector Jaswinder Singh, said forensic experts had managed to lift some fingerprints from the weapon and would examine those.

The police would write to district magistrates in the region, providing them details of the make of the weapon, along with its identification number, in a bid to find the owner of the weapon in whose name it had been registered.

“Though the pistol, which is made in England, appears to be a licensed registered weapon, the chances of its not being registered cannot be ruled out,” said a police officer.

The police would also send the weapon, along with the 21 live cartridges, to the Central Forensic Sciences Laboratory in Sector 36 for further examination.

Even as CCTV cameras had been installed at the parking lot from where the weapon was found, the police could not examine the footage as experts were busy in some training course today.

Investigators said they were hopeful of getting some vital clues about the person, who dropped or accidentally left it there. They quizzed some shopkeepers near the spot in this connection.

DSP (Central) Jagbir Singh said they were working on various theories, including one that someone might have stolen a bag carrying articles and dropped the weapon on finding it there.

Nothing could be said about it at this stage, he added. The police seized the weapon after a rag-picker spotted it.

He informed a shopkeeper about the bag. The pistol was in a holster with 21 live cartridges. The police registered a daily diary report in this regard.

‘Kidnap’ calls lead cops on wild chase
Tribune News Service

Chandigarh, March 15
Two “kidnapping” incidents reported from different areas of the city today kept the police on its toes for hours.

Much drama was witnessed on the Panjab University campus when a bystander, on seeing a girl being forcibly pushed into a car by a man, called up the cops while in the other incident someone rang up the police saying he had seen a group of men bundling a man into their vehicle.

The first incident was triggered when someone raised an alarm at about 9:30 am claiming a girl had been abducted in a car at the annual PU cultural event. Within minutes the security staff on the campus closed the entry gates but by that time the car had already left the campus.

The police swung into action and traced the car owner by the vehicle’s registration number. The cops later found out he was the father of the girl, a student of the PU chemical engineering department. He told the police his daughter had been “going around with a boy” and he was against that. He added she had gone to the campus after quarreling with family members and he wanted to take her back home.

In the second incident, the police said a team of plain clothed CIA personnel from Mohali was chasing a man, reportedly a member of a gang of car lifters, adding the cops nabbed the man who was later identified as Ajay Sharma. The police was in two vehicles - a Tata Indica car and a Toyota Innova MUV - and picked up the man. Someone called up the police, which arrived at the scene and inquired into the matter.

Sector 17 police station SHO inspector Jaswinder Singh said the Mohali police informed them about the case in which the man was wanted.
