Jaipal Bhullar Encounter Case: Family moves to court for second post-mortem
Ferozepur, June 14, 2021: The family members of gangster Jaipal Bhullar, who was killed in an encounter with the STF of West Bengal Police in Kolkota on June 9 afternoon, have moved to the High Court for second post-mortem.
The parents have refused to perform last rites alleging foul play into killing of gangster Jailpal Bhullar and demanding second post-mortem to find out the facts.
Jaipal’s cremation was to be performed on bringing the body from Kolkota in the afternoon and his younger brother Amritpal Singh was also brought here under tight security for the last rites from Bathinda where he is presently lodged in jail. He was however, sent back when the family decided to move to the court and refusing to perform last rites.
Since the autopsy or second post-mortem is out of the jurisdiction the authority of local administration since the incident did not happen in Ferozepur, as the encounter had taken place in Kolkota, the family had now moved to the High Court refusing for cremation. The body has been kept at the residence in the freezer and heavy police force have been made around Jaipal’s house to prevent any untoward incident as earlier the police had purportedly nabbed a youth outside the locality and seized a pistol.
Jaipal’s father Bhupinder Singh Bhullar had said, The local administration has refused to allow second post-mortem and we have moved to the court and wait for the orders.
