Singer Sidhu Moosewala shot by unidentified assailants in Punjab’s Mansa
The HinduPunjabi singer Shubhdeep Singh Sidhu, known as Sidhu Moosewala, was shot dead on Sunday at Jahawarke village in Mansa district of Punjab, a day after his security cover among several others was withdrawn by the State police. Mr. Moosewala had four commandos of the Punjab police for security, but in the wake of “ghallughara” and Operation Bluestar anniversary as every year, the security was thinned. The CM also must honestly think if the cheaply populist decision to withdraw Mr. Moosewala’s security is directly responsible for the tragedy.” “After all, he faced tangible threat to life. “The AAP government has been a complete failure on the law and order front and I have been saying it since the beginning.” He criticised the State government’s decision to withdraw Mr. Moosewala’s security without assessing his threat perception.
