Mystery shrouds death of 3 youths
Mystery shrouds the death of three youths who allegedly met with an accident near the Fatehgarh Churian bypass road here on Wednesday night.
While the police believe that they were killed in a road mishap, their family members alleged that they were killed by unidentified persons under a conspiracy. They alleged that the victims had been getting threatening calls for the past several days.
The police scanned the footage of CCTV cameras in the area and later registered an FIR against unidentified persons. The police took the bodies into their custody and sent for an autopsy.
The deceased were identified as Sahil, Tarlochan Singh and Jatinder Singh, all residents of Navi Abadi area on the Fatehgarh Churian road. All of them works for a recovery agency.
The family members alleged that the bodies had injury marks caused by a sharp-edged weapon. Last night, they had gone to meet a friend on the bypass on a motorcycle, but they did not return home. The family members searched for them at every possible place but in vain.
In the morning, they came to know about their deaths allegedly in road mishaps. While Sahil and Jatinder Singh died on the spot, Tarlochan Singh succumbed to injuries on way to hospital.
Vinod Kumar, SHO, Sadar police station, said the exact cause of death would be ascertained after they get the autopsy report. Though it appears to be a case of road mishap, they are investigating the case and scanning the footage of CCTV cameras on the road for clues.
Anchal, sister of the deceased Sahil, alleged that he and his friends had sharp-edged weapon injury marks on the body. She alleged they were brutally murdered.
