2 cousins with same name meet same fate
Ludhiana: Two cousins with the same name have been awarded a life in prison for killing their neighbour over a financial dispute. A fine of Rs 10,000 each has also been slapped on the two convicts. Kulwinder Singh, son of Kulwant Singh, and his namesake, son of Jagjit Singh --- both from Tajpur, were charged with IPC sections 302 (murder) and 34 (common intention) on Jan 29, 2017 by Sadar Raikot police. The victim, Bhupinder Singh (28), was a father of two --- a son and a daughter. Bhupinder's father, Harpal Singh, told police that the accused had an old rivalry with his son. Harpal has a scrap business. On the fateful day, around 7.30 in the evening, he said both the accused took Bhupinder with them on a motorcycle, possibly intending to harm him. Anxious, he along with his wife and brother-in-law went after them. On the way, they were told that the accused were seen taking his son towards Lohatbaddi via the Klasian main road. When they reached a palace near Lohatbaddi, they were told that the suspects had turned left along a drain. As they continued searching along the road lining the drain, about 1km ahead, they heard someone let out a scream. This was around 8.30pm.

He lay there in a pool of blood with serious injuries, and when they raised an alarm, the attackers fled towards Lohatbaddi, carrying their weapons. Bhupinder died on the spot. The father said the accused had demanded money from Bhupinder earlier and threatened him with dire consequences if he refused to pay them. On his complaint, the accused were booked and subsequently arrested. Police prepared a charge-sheet against them and presented it in court. During the trial of the case, the accused pleaded false implication. The defence counsel argued that the prosecution failed to prove any motive for the accused to murder Bhupinder and that the claim of a money dispute was only verbal without any documentary proof. The court of additional sessions judge/fast track court, Sandeep Singh Bajwa, observed that the argument was flawed and could not be accepted. "It is important to understand that motive lies within the mind of the accused and does not always need to be proven by the prosecution. In many cases, it is not possible to uncover the exact motive behind a crime. While some motives are clear and supported by evidence, others may remain uncertain or hidden. However, when there is strong and convincing eyewitness testimony and clear evidence showing the role of the accused in the crime, the absence of a proven motive does not weaken the prosecution's case," the court observed. Pronouncing the quantum of sentence to the two convicts, the court held, "Looking at the present case, it does not qualify as one of those rarest of rare cases." Harpal Singh has a scrap business. He is the father of two sons and a daughter.
