Patiala, Punjab: Punjab minister Jagir Kaur was today convicted for conspiring in forcible abduction, kidnapping and wrongful confinement in connection with the killing of her daughter Harpreet Kaur 12 years back but was acquitted of the murder charge.
The minister was on Friday sent to Patiala Central Jail after a special Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI) court sentenced her to five years of imprisonment in three cases relating to Harpreet’s mysterious death in April 2000.
Jagir Kaur, who had been accused of getting her daughter murdered in an apparent case of honour killing, was found guilty of forcing Harpreet to abort her baby days before she died. She was also found guilty of abduction and wrongful confinement.
She was given five-year rigorous imprisonment in one case, three years in another and one year in a third case. All sentences are to run concurrently.
Harpreet was found dead under mysterious circumstances on April 20, 2000. She was cremated in a hurry without post mortem examination. Jagir Kaur had then said that her daughter died of severe food poisoning.
Later, her son-in-law Kamaljit Singh accused Jagir of plotting the murder of Harpreet as she did not approve of their marriage. He also claimed that a pregnant Harpreet was forced to abort her baby, days before she was killed.
Harpreet had married Kamaljit secretly against the wishes of Jagir, who was then the chief of Shiromani Gurudwara Prabandhak Committee (SGPC), the Sikhs’ highest religious body. The allegations forced her resignation from the post.
The case against Jagir was registered after Kamaljit approached the Punjab and Haryana High Court, which consequently ordered a CBI probe. Earlier this month, Kamaljit had written a letter to Punjab Chief Minister Parkash Singh Badal claiming that he and his family were being threatened by the police.
The whole world knows what exactly her character is.
Maybe get an explanation from her about the full face hair removal process she had during her second sgpc chef stint.
If we watch this case honestly,Smt,Jagir Kaur is also a mother not only MLA.We knows what an mother has feeling for her daughters. So that let the court do his job.Smt. Jagir Kaur know her duties very well about her family and her publics.
It is better if we analies to ourselfs.
Where I thinks more peoples donot know the reality of this case.Court is doing her job.Let him done.Bibi has accept the decision of court.Next week she get the bail and it is his fundamental right.
