Pak-based gangster posts video of killing of cops in Gurdaspur
 
CHANDIGARH :
 
A DAY after two police personnel were found shot dead at a checkpost in Gurdaspur near the Indo-Pak border, a Pakistan-based gangster posted on social media a purported video showing an unidentified shooter firing at one of the cops at point-blank range. The same unverified video, posted by gangster Shahzad Bhatti, was also shared by an outfit calling itself Tehreek-e-Taliban Hindustan, which had claimed responsibility for the killings on Sunday. Punjab police remained tight-lipped on the claims, with a senior police officer saying that they are probing all angles. Punjab Chief Minister Bhagwant Mann, who has come under fresh attack from the Opposition, said on Monday that the investigation was underway and announced an ex-gratia payment of Rs 1 crore each for the kin of two police personnel.
