Chandigarh: Punjab Deputy Chief Minister Sukhbir Singh Badal on Thursday claimed that the Punjab government had “evidence of foreign agencies being behind the recent congregation” of radical Sikhs at Chabba village near Amritsar on November 10 and that the state government would share the same with the CBI.

“Recent revelations had also proved that the Congress was in close coordination with the radical elements who had organised the November 10 gathering and also had a hand in drafting of the resolutions,” Badal, who is the president of the ruling Shiromani Akali Dal, told the media here.

Demanding that the Congress “should be declared an anti-national party” in the wake of its aligning with elements having secessionist agenda, Badal accused the opposition party of fomenting trouble in Punjab in recent months.

“It is clear that the conspiracies hatched by the foreign elements were behind the recent unfortunate incidents of sacrilege of Sri Guru Granth Sahib. From the inputs which the state government was getting, more astonishing disclosures are sure to come out,” Badal said.

“The Congress is emerging as the axis around which the whole conspiracy revolves. The Congress and the Aam Aadmi Party are engaged in running a malicious and seditious campaign on the social media with the single point agenda of poisoning the atmosphere and destabilising the government,” Badal said.

Issuing a strict warning, Badal said severe action would be taken against the elements misusing social media to foment trouble in the state.

“The people of Punjab and the Akali Dal-BJP government would not let the opportunistic and separatist brand of politics to take root and is duty bound to protect and ensure the peaceful atmosphere in the state. The state government is also going all out to ensure the socio-economic progress of farmers, traders and other sections of society,” Badal said.

He said sacrilege cases would be dealt with more firmly in the state in future.

The court, generally, considers a person who commit a crime and the one who destroys the evidence, as criminals in the eyes of law. But what if an animal destroys the evidence of a crime committed by a human.

In a peculiar incident in Rajasthan, a monkey fled away with the evidence collected by the police in a murder case. The stolen evidence included the murder weapon (a blood-stained knife).

The incident came to light when the police appeared before the court and they had to provide the evidence in the hearing.

The hearing was about the crime which took place in September 2016, in which a person named Shashikant Sharma died at a primary health center under Chandwaji police station. After the body was found, the deceased’s relatives blocked the Jaipur-Delhi highway, demanding an inquiry into the matter.

Following the investigation, the police had arrested Rahul Kandera and Mohanlal Kandera, residents of Chandwaji in relation to the murder. But, when the time came to produce the evidence related to the case, it was found that the police had no evidence with them because a monkey had stolen it from them.

In the court, the police said that the knife, which was the primary evidence, was also taken by the monkey. The cops informed that the evidence of the case was kept in a bag, which was being taken to the court.

The evidence bag contained the knife and 15 other important evidences. However, due to the lack of space in the malkhana, a bag full of evidence was kept under a tree, which led to the incident.
