Bike-borne men abduct woman, assault male friend and flee with their car in Mohali
The Mohali police on Sunday announced the arrests of two security guards and two others who allegedly abducted a woman and her male friend and fled in the victims' car.
As per the woman's police complaint, when she was returning from Best Tech Mall in Mohali after watching a movie with her friend on the night of July 11–12, four bike-borne men, dressed in Nihangs' attire, intercepted their car near the Lakhnour turn.
The accused allegedly abducted both of them but abandoned the man 100 m away after assaulting him. They allegedly sped away with the woman, molested her, and pushed her out of the car 30 minutes later, before escaping towards Ambala.
According to Senior Superintendent of Police Harmandeep Singh Hans said the stolen vehicle was recovered from the arrested men, identified as Shamsher Singh, who hails from Kalanaur in Gurdaspur; Satnam Singh, a cab driver from Ludhiana; Nirmal Singh, a security guard from Nawanshahr; and Chander Mohan alias Jaildar, a security guard from Jammu.
The police arrested the accused from Chanarthal village after they received a confidential tip-off and deployed multiple teams to nab the four men. They traced the stolen vehicle after analysing CCTV footage.
SSP Hans stated, 'These accused may be involved in other criminal cases as well. Interrogation is underway, and more revelations are expected.'
All four men stayed at a paying guest facility behind Gurdwara Singh Shaheedan at Sohana in Mohali, according to the police.
The operation was led by SP (Operations) Talwinder Singh, SP (PBI) Deepika Singh, DSP (City-2) Harsimran Singh Bal, and DSP (Economic Offences) Rajesh, under whom Inspector Amandeep Singh (SHO, Sohana), Inspector Gabbar Singh, and Inspector Gagandeep carried out the investigation.
