CHANDIGARH, Punjab—In a conference organized by ‘Sikhs for Human Rights’ on World Human Rights Day at Makhan Shah Lubana Auitorium, Former DGP (Prisons) Shashi Kant signified that SSP Ajit Sandhu, responsible for murdering Human Rights Activist Jaswant Singh Khalra, was still alive and living in Canada.
Jaswant Singh Khalra was abducted from his home on September 6 by Punjab police contingents led by SSP Ajit Sandhu appointed in Tarn Taran. As per information exposed by eye an witness in court, Khalra was murdered between September 24 and 25 by SSP Ajit Sandhu. SSP Ajit Sandhu was later shown to have committed suicide however the unrecognizable face of the dead body had sparked a sharp controversy over his death. Sikh bodies have been claiming that he has survived in Canada for a long time.  
Refraining from openly naming SSP Ajit Sandhu, DGP Shashi Kant said that the officer was responsible for committing immense atrocities and extra-judicial fake encounters of so many Sikh youths.
The former DGP also revealed that all the Government machinery including those who prepared his Post mortem report, helped SSP Ajit Sandhu to flee away from Punjab. He claimed that Ajit Sandhu was enjoying a luxury life in Canada under a fake name.
