Harchand Singh - resident of Maarhi Khambo Ke, Tarn Taran and is a descendant of Bhai Sukha Singh (Massa Ranghar sodhak)
What prompted them to do Ajit Poohla kaand?
A book by Baljit Singh Khalsa, editor of Fatehnama, named "Hindustani Attwaad" was recovered from the jail. This book mentions many of the Phoola's mideeds and atrocities carried out upon Sikh families, such as that of Shaheed Bhai Balwinder Singh Jattana Babbar.
Phoola and his armed brigade raided the house of Jattana in the wee hours of August 29 , 1991, and burnt alive four women, named Jasmer Kaur (chachi), Dawarki Kaur (grandmother), Manpreet Kaur ( a class VII student) and Harsimranjit Kaur, a six-year-old handicapped girl.
Co-incidentally? Phoola's death fall, exactly 17 years to the day that Phoola and his gang committed this inhumane act.
How it happened
As Harchand Singh doused Ajit Phoola with petrol removed from the prison generator, Navtej Singh waiting with a scrap of cloth which he had already lit, and threw it onto Phoola's body, thus setting him ablaze.
Current Situation
Police has taken Navtej Singh and Harcharan Singh in remand for 3 days. They will be presented in court on August 31. That day has historical importance too, as Bhai Dilavar Singh Ji Babbar delivered justice to Beant Singh (CM) and became Shaheed.
