In a significant development in the murder case of AAP leader Lucky Oberoi, the Punjab Police arrested a primary suspect in Amritsar. This arrest followed a brief gunfight, according to senior officers.
The suspect, Shaminder Singh from Jalandhar's Mithapur, was apprehended while on a scooter, allegedly waiting for the assailant during the shooting on Friday morning outside a Jalandhar gurdwara. Police seized a .30-bore pistol from him. Deputy Inspector General of Police (Border Range) Sandeep Goel confirmed these details, highlighting the suspect's criminal history.
Oberoi, a 43-year-old AAP ward in charge in Jalandhar, was targeted shortly after exiting a gurdwara. Investigations have suggested personal enmity as a motive, with links to an ongoing college presidency dispute. Political opponents have criticized the AAP government, citing deteriorating law and order. Further arrests are expected as the investigation continues.
