PRESS NOTE

Chandigarh Police on May 15-10-91 at about 8.30 P.M had gone to H.No Phase 4 Mohali Mr. Sukhder Singh’s house due to some reason. Mr. Sukhder Singh was not home at that time.

Chandigarh Police picked up Mrs. Parmit Kaur w/o Mr. Sukhder Singh leaving their 2 children’s under 10 years at age alone at home.

So far Mrs. Parmit Kaur has not been released or produced in any court. Our organization has come to know that she is being tortured under the direct supervision of S.S.P Chandigarh. She is an Innocent person. We demand her immediate release.

There are also 250 others innocent persons between the ages of under 10 years to over 70 years including women in the illegal custody of Punjab Police. Their only fault is they happen to be near and distant relatives at some underground militants.

This policy of Repression Harassment and torture of innocent persons by Punjab Government forces has been going on for last seven years. It has always been counter productive and has brought Punjab to its present state.

We also demand immediate relaease of these 250 innocent persons illegalay detained by Punjab Police.
