May 6, 2020 | By Sikh Siyasat Bureau

Chandigarh: As per reports, Punjab police have registered another FIR against Punjabi singer Sidhu Moose Wala for violating curfew at Dhuri police station after his another video went viral on Tuesday.

New Case Pertain To Another Shooting Incident:

According to reports another video went viral on Tuesday in which Sidhu Moose Wala can be seen firing from a pistol at Laddai Kothi shooting range.

Sangrur SSP Dr Sandeep Garg said case under Sections 188 of the IPC and Section 51 of the Disaster Management Act has been registered against Moosewala, Karam Singh Lehal, Inder Singh Grewal, Jang Sher Singh and five policemen, including a Sub-Inspector, two Head Constables and two Constables.

What SSP Says:

“After getting video in the evening and in the preliminary investigations it has come to light that before going to Badbar firing range, they went to Ladda Kothi shooting range. We have registered another case under same sections as registered by Dhanauala police against the same accused and started investigations” SSP Garg reportedly told The Tribune (TT).

Previous Case was Registered on May 4:

Earlier, a case was registered against him at Dhanaula police station in Barnala district on Monday (May 4) after a video showing Sidhu Moose Wala shooting with an AK47 rifle with the help of police personnel had gone viral over social media.

PUNJAB POLCIE STILL FAVOURING SIDHU MOOSE WALA – NOT BOOKED UNDER ARMS ACT:

Notably, in incident related to FIR No. 57 (PS Dhanaula) Sidhu Mooswala had used sophisticated automatic weapon (AK-47), most likely belonging to the Punjab police, but he was booked by Dhanaula police only for violating curfew (u/s 188 IPC) and for obstructing officials or refusing to copy with directions under Disaster Management Act (u/s 51 DMA).

Sidhu Moose Wala is not booked under Arms Act for using unauthorised AK-47, which shows that Punjab police is still offering him favours.

@PunjabPoliceInd #Fir against #sidhumoosewala has prima facie flaw as no section of #ArmsAct is mentioned. @DGPPunjabPolice must b aware that incident also invites sec. 336 of IPC & Sec. 25/27 of Arms Act. Is @PunjabPoliceInd paying back Moose Wala for supporting it earlier ??
