Rahul questions PM’s silence on DSP’s arrest

New Delhi, January 16

Two days after the Congress first asked about what role the arrested Jammu and Kashmir cop Davinder Singh played in the Pulwama terror attack, former party president Rahul Gandhi repeated the question alleging that the government was trying to cover up for the DSP.

In a tweet today, Rahul said DSP Davinder Singh sheltered three terrorists and was caught ferrying them to Delhi.

“He must be tried by a fast-track court within six months and if guilty given the harshest possible sentence for treason,” Gandhi said floating a hasgtag – TerroristDavinderCoverUp.

He also attached a poster on Twitter asking why Prime Minister Narendra Modi and NSA Ajit Doval were silent on Davinder Singh.

AICC general secretary Priyanka Gandhi Vadra also followed up the matter tweeting, “DSP Davindar Singh’s arrest in J&K raises disturbing questions critical to India’s national security. It seems rather odd that he not only evaded detection, but was also entrusted with extremely sensitive duties like escorting foreign envoys to J&K under the prevailing circumstances. Whose orders was he working under? A full investigation must be made. Helping terrorists plan attacks on India is treason.”
