Accused in Chadha suicide case ‘grabbing’ his properties: Family

Tribune News Service
Amritsar, February 8

Former CKD president Charanjit Singh Chadha and his grandson Prabhpreet Singh today alleged that Surjit Singh, a prime accused in his son Inderpreet Chadha’s suicide case, was fraudulently grabbing Inderpeet’s properties, threatening witnesses and tampering with evidence.

Inderpreet allegedly committed suicide in January last year.

They alleged Surjit, who has been out on bail since September last year, fraudulently transferred the share of Inderpreet’s property to his wife Dalbir Kaur’s name with the help of his employees.

They said they filed a complaint with the Deputy Commissioner who asked the IG Border Range and the rural police to act against the accused. They alleged that some big businessmen were trying to influence and delay the action against Surjit.

Surjit Singh could not be contacted even after repeated attempts.

Parampal Singh, SSP, Amritsar rural police, said they had submitted a probe report to the IG and it contradicted the charges levelled by the Chadhas. He said the land in question was transferred nine months before his death and Inderpreet had never objected to this transfer.
