Mohali: Aam Aadmi Party MLA Kunwar Vijay Partap Singh appeared at the Mohali Sessions Court on Friday in connection with what he described as a sensitive and important case involving alleged notorious gangsters.Sharing details of his court appearance, the former police officer said that despite having resigned from the department, he remains committed to serving society and standing by the principles he believes in.
Singh said his appearance before the court was connected with providing evidence in the case. He did not disclose detailed information about the evidence or the proceedings, citing the sensitive nature of the matter.However, the MLA also expressed concern over what he described as the growing proximity of certain alleged gangsters to those in power.
In a pointed political observation, Singh said he was “pained to see such gangsters close to the government”, alleging that some had joined the ruling party and even appeared for interviews with national television channels under what he described as police patronage.
His remarks raise broader questions about the relationship between organised crime, political influence and law-enforcement institutions. Such allegations, however, would require independent verification and examination of specific cases and individuals before any conclusions can be drawn.
Singh’s appearance at the Sessions Court underscores his stated commitment to pursuing matters through the judicial process, while his political comments have added another dimension to the debate over Punjab’s fight against organised crime.The identities of the individuals referred to in Singh’s remarks and the specific allegations against them were not detailed in his public statement.
