'Repeatedly punched and kicked': 2 Punjab commandos assault journalist; suspended
BATALA : A disturbing video has emerged showing two Punjab Police commandos brutally assaulting a journalist in broad daylight on a busy street in Batala. The incident, which has sparked outrage, was caught on camera and widely circulated on social media. In the 2-minute 16-second clip, two men—one in police uniform and the other in civilian clothes—are seen repeatedly punching and kicking a man, identified as journalist Balwinder Singh. The assault takes place in full public view, with bystanders watching helplessly. During the assault, Balwinder collapses into a water-filled pothole and lies motionless as the attackers walk away. Shockingly, the man in civilian clothing returns to kick the victim again. Moments later, the uniformed officer also returns, seemingly to check on the victim, before walking away. Singh remains motionless on the road while passersby continue to look on. Eventually, a group of locals rushes to his aid, but the journalist appears unresponsive. Senior Superintendent of Police, Batala, Suhail Qasim Mir, said that the two attackers have been identified as Sub-Inspectors Mandeep Singh and Surjit, from the 5th Battalion of the Punjab Police Commandos, stationed in Bathinda. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like Switch to UnionBank Rewards Card UnionBank Credit Card Apply Now Undo He added that they had been deployed to Batala for law and order duty in wake of Independence Day. Suhail said that the incident occurred on August 1, but the video went viral on Wednesday. Based on the victim's statement, the police took cognizance of the matter and registered an FIR on August 2 under the relevant sections. He further informed that the commander of the battalion has also been informed to initiate disciplinary action. Providing further details, Sanjiv Kumar, Deputy Superintendent of Police, Batala City, said that preliminary investigations revealed the two officers were staying at a hotel in Batala during their deployment. It was there that journalist Balwinder approached them and asked some questions—reportedly in connection with their presence . The exact nature of the conversation remains under investigation, but it appears that the line of questioning did not sit well with the officers which led to the heated exchange, the situation escalated, and the two sub-inspectors allegedly assaulted the journalist. Meanwhile, both the officers have been suspended, said Sanjiv.

UP encounter: Wanted mafia Ashish Ranjan gunned down near Prayagraj, linked to multiple murders across Jharkhand; AK-47, 9mm pistol recovered
LUCKNOW: Uttar Pradesh STF gunned down dreaded mafia criminal Ashish Ranjan alias Chhotu Singh, a resident of Dhanbad, Jharkhand, in an encounter near Shivrajpur Chauraha under Shankargarh police station limits in Prayagraj in the wee hours of Thursday. Ashish, wanted in at least four high-profile murder cases, including that of gangster Aman Singh, opened fire with an AK-47 rifle and a 9mm pistol at the STF team, prompting retaliatory action in which he was critically injured and later declared dead, said Additional DG, law and order, Amitabh Yash. ADG Yash said that acting on a tip-off that Ashish was en route to Prayagraj to possibly execute a major criminal plot with an associate, the STF laid a trap near Shivrajpur. 'When intercepted, Ashish fired at the police team with lethal intent. STF officers JP Rai, Prabhanjan, and Rohit narrowly escaped bullets. In self-defence, the STF retaliated, injuring Ashish, who was rushed to a nearby hospital but succumbed to injuries,' said ADG Yash. From the spot, police recovered a loaded AK-47, 9mm pistol, large cache of live cartridges and spent shells, and a motorcycle. A case under multiple sections, including attempt to murder and Arms Act, has been lodged, and further investigation is underway, the officer added. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like Learn More - How Donating Sperm May Boost Your Income SpellRock Undo STF said that Ashish had a long criminal history and was the prime accused in three high-profile murder cases in Dhanbad, including, the murder of police informer and coal trader Neeraj Tiwari in Katras on September 5, 2021. The murder of land dealer Sarful Hasan alias Lala Khan in Wasseypur on May 12, 2021. The murder of Ranjit Sahu in Jharia. Previously, Ashish had been jailed in the Samir Mandal land mafia murder case but was released on bail, after which he continued to commit heinous crimes. Jharkhand Police and CID had both been hunting him, and a permanent warrant had been issued against him. Connection to Gangster Aman Singh's Jail Murder Ashish came into the spotlight after he claimed responsibility for the murder of mafia don Aman Singh inside Dhanbad Jail, in a viral audio-video confession. The feud reportedly began after Ashish accused Aman of plotting his murder. Police suspect the conspiracy to eliminate Aman was hatched in Nepal, where Ashish is believed to have been hiding before resurfacing in UP. A key accused in Aman's murder, Ritesh Yadav alias Sundar Mahto, had told police that he met Ashish in Nepal days before the murder. House Attached, Police Crack Down Following his repeated absconding, police had already initiated property attachment proceedings at Ashish's residence in JC Mallick Road, Dhanbad, on orders of SDJM Poonam Kumari in September 2024. In two separate FIRs—one related to the murder of Neeraj Tiwari and the other involving land dealer Lala Khan—his house and belongings were seized by the local police. Ashish has over a dozen serious criminal cases registered against him.
