The Special Investigation Team (SIT) probing the Kotkapura police firing incident will conduct a second round of questioning of ex-DGP Sumedh Singh Saini at Punjab Police Officer's Institute in Mohali's sector 32 at 11 am on Monday.

It has also summoned suspended IG Paramraj Singh Umranangal and other officers concerned with the 2015 incident in which cops opened fire at a mob protesting against the sacrilege incidents.

Saini was DGP at that time.

The SIT is probing who ordered the firing at the mob and whether it was justified.
