The police are interrogating the four Nihangs who surrendered in the case related to the brutal murder of Lakhvir Singh two days ago at the Singhu border in Haryana, separately for exposing them to the truth. It is also a big challenge before the police to recover the weapons used in Lakhveer’s murder. During the surrender of Sarabjit Singh on Friday evening, Lakhveer was said to have been killed by handing over a sword to the police in the camp of Nihangs.
A sword in the form of a murder weapon was handed over to the police on behalf of the Nihangs at the time of the surrender of Nihang Sarabjit Singh on Friday evening.
When the police and forensic teams examined the sword, it became clear that Lakhveer was not killed by it. In such a situation, the recovery of Lakhvir’s hand and leg and the weapons with which he was attacked on his body are yet to be recovered. For this, the police team can again go to the camp of Nihangs on the Singhu border. IG Sandeep Khirwar of Rohtak range and SP Jashandeep Singh Randhawa of Sonipat are themselves questioning and answering the four Nihangas at CIA-2 police station in Sonepat.

Trying to find out the names of more people involved in the murder
Lakhvir Singh was murdered on the Singhu border at 3.30 am on Friday. One of his arms and legs were also amputated before the murder. The Nihangs allege that Lakhvir Singh committed the sacrilege of the Guru Granth Sahib, for which he was punished. So far 4 Nihang Sarabjit Singh, Narayan Singh, Bhagwant Singh and Govindpreet have surrendered in this case. Police are interrogating the four surrendered Nihangs and want to know who else were involved with them in this murder. In order to cross-verify the information that will be received in different inquiries from the four, then questions will be answered by sitting all four face to face. The police will also take the four Nihangs to the Singhu border to recreate the murder scene.

Additional security arrangements in the court premises
Police will take police remand of Narayan Singh, Bhagwant Singh and Govindpreet Singh by presenting them in Sonepat court. Security was beefed up in the Sonepat court complex in view of the three’s appearance. Due to Sunday being a holiday in the court, all three will be produced before the duty magistrate.
