India Today
A team of the Delhi Police’s Special Cell reached Nepal on Friday to nab gunmen connected to Punjabi singer Sidhu Moose Wala’s murder, sources said.
Are the gunmen involved in Punjabi singer Sidhu Moose Wala’s murder hiding in Nepal? Investigation into the deadly shooting has led a team of the Delhi Police’s Special Cell to the neighbouring country, sources said.
Based on specific intelligence inputs, the police team reached Nepal on Friday to nab the assailants believed to have fled to the Himalayan nation after the attack on Moose Wala at Jawaharke village in Punjab’s Mansa district on Sunday.
The development comes hours after news emerged that the Punjab Police detained two men in connection with Moose Wala’s murder. The two suspects were apprehended in Bhirdana village in Fatehabad for allegedly providing the Bolero car which was used in the shootout.
Earlier on Tuesday, the Punjab Police made their first arrest in the case, two days after the singer-politician was shot dead in his own jeep. Police said accused Manpreet Singh supplied vehicles to the assailants who were involved in the killing of Moose Wala. Singh was produced before a court the same day, and sent to a five-day police custody.

With Moose Wala’s murder suspected to be the fallout of an inter-gang rivalry, Delhi Police's Special Cell got three-day custody of gangster Lawrence Bishnoi. During questioning, he admitted that his gang members, including Canada-based Goldy Brar, hatched a conspiracy to kill the Punjabi singer.
In a Facebook post, Goldy Brar had claimed responsibility for Moose Wala’s murder. He said he had killed Moose Wala to avenge the death of gangster Vicky Middukhera.

A prominent seer, Pranavananda Swamiji, alleged that mutts backing Karnataka Deputy Chief Minister DK Shivakumar to take over the top post were denied any allocation in the state budget presented by Chief Minister Siddaramaiah. He reiterated his support for Shivakumar to take over as the chief minister.

India's original Dhurandhar, Ravindra Kaushik, rose from acting at college theatres, to infiltrating the Pakistan Army as a RAW Agent. He provided critical intelligence on Pakistani troop movements and the country's nuclear programme, but died a lonely death after his betrayal and subsequent capture by the ISI.
