'I was asked to urinate in my nephews' mouth'

DANAULI (SAFIDON): At 65, Sheesha Singh of this dusty hamlet was asked to urinate in the mouth of his nephews along with whom he had been apprehended by the police on the suspicion of cow-slaughtering and kept at the Safidon police station on the night of September 11.

His refusal let loose a trail of inhuman torture. The cops, allegedly under the influence of liquor, tied the three Sikh farmers by the hair, threw them on the floor, and kept beating until two of them fell unconscious.

But for the timely intervention by the villagers who reached the police station in the wee hours, Safidon would not have missed becoming another Jhajjar. The incident provoked a string of protests but after the appeal made by villagers to Chief Minister Om Prakash Chautala failed, they gheraoed the police station on Monday. Succumbing to pressure, the police registered a case under the demanded sections and also named the SHO in the FIR.

The police have so far suspended five cops for their involvement in the incident. These include SHO Ishwar Singh Rathi, ASI Ishawar Singh, head constable Nand Kishore, constable Ranvir Singh and driver Kuldeep Singh.

Rajiv Sharma, Deputy Commissioner of Jind, admitted that the policemen had committed atrocities. Action had been taken following an inquiry, he said. "There had been excesses but nobo

dy's religious belief was hurt. Vested interests seemed to have blown the incident out of proportions," he told this website's newspaper at Jind.

The farmers narrated their nightmarish experience with horror writ large on their faces. Thus goes their story. Sheesha Singh along with his three nephews _ Asa Singh, Kulwinder Singh and Daler Singh _ loaded four stray cows and two calves who had been damaging their crops, to be delivered at the local gaushala at Safidon.

But as they approached the township, a group of 12 youths started trailing them on bicycles nurturing the suspicion that they had slaughtered a cow. "They chased us from village Khera Khemawati until we reached the town and later complained to head constable Nand Kishore who took us to the police station," narrated Sheesha.

"The SHO accused us of being Muslims and ordered his men to teach us a lesson. All our appeals fell on deaf ears. The policemen first removed our turbans and then tied us together with our hair. We were dumped in a corner and were given sound thrashing. The cops even kicked us on our wounds," alleged Asa Singh.

"The SHO went to sleep around midnight but before retiring to bed he ordered his men not to separate us as he would repeat the act during daytime and separate us only after cutting our hair," alleged Daler who was hit on his private parts badly.

When the three asked for water, the police allegedly asked Sheesha Singh, the eldest of them, to urinate in their mouths. "I said I would better die than do this," said Sheesha, adding that it provoked the cops who snatched the kirpan of Kulwinder Singh and threw it into the drain.

The farmers showed their wounds to the chief minister during his visit to Jind but to no avail. The police named the

SHO in the FIR only after the villagers gheroaed the police station.

Kamal Sharma, a local Congress leader who led the agitation, said the incident had unmasked the anti-farmer face of the chief minister.

      Traveling in Punjab independently and safely (need good advice)

      By BhForce · Posted

      Umm, that's totally irrational, bro. There are plenty of prakash-dara Singhs in Punjab (less than we'd like, but still plenty). No one cares that you are sabat soorat. It isn't 1986. You can walk around in chola, kurta-pajama, or jeans. Whatever. If you want the look @dallysingh101 is referring to, just go into a cheap clothing shop (not a Western-style mall) and buy some shirts for 250 rupees or a track suit for 2000 rupees. You'll get the cheap stuff made in some sweatshop in Bombay.

      Concept of Sin

      By MokhamSingh · Posted

      The Mind is Jyot Saroop (Waheguru), but the mind is under the influence of five evils… Through Naam Simran( Rememberance), the mind will begin to detach from evil, and get back to its original form ( MANN TU JYOT SAROOP HEH)… Until the mind breaks free from the five evils, one will go through the cycle of paap and punn….which leads to Karma… Naam Simran destroys past karma, and prevents new karma coming into fruition… I did this, I did that… This non realisation of the Jyot Saroop gives rise to paap and Punn, which in turn gives birth to suffering and misery…

      Concept of Sin

      I agree we're not born with sin like the Christians think. Also I agree we have effects of karma. But Gurbani does state that the body contains both sin and charity (goodness): ਕਾਇਆ ਅੰਦਰਿ ਪਾਪੁ ਪੁੰਨੁ ਦੁਇ ਭਾਈ ॥ Within the body are the two brothers sin and virtue. p126 Actually, we do need to be saved. Gurbani calls this "udhaar" (uplift). Without Satguru, souls are liable to spiritual death: ਜਿਨਾ ਸਤਿਗੁਰੁ ਪੁਰਖੁ ਨ ਭੇਟਿਓ ਸੇ ਭਾਗਹੀਣ ਵਸਿ ਕਾਲ ॥ p40 Those who have not met Satguru Purakh are unfortunate and liable to death. So, yeah, we do need to be saved, and Guru ji does the saving. The reason Satguru is the one to save is because God has given Satguru the "key" (kunji): ਸਤਿਗੁਰ ਹਥਿ ਕੁੰਜੀ ਹੋਰਤੁ ਦਰੁ ਖੁਲੈ ਨਾਹੀ ਗੁਰੁ ਪੂਰੈ ਭਾਗਿ ਮਿਲਾਵਣਿਆ ॥੭॥ In the True Guru's hand is the key. None else can open the door. By perfect good fortune the Guru is met. p124

      Fake Baba

      By BhForce · Posted

      That's unfortunate to hear. Could you give any more information? Who was this "baba"? He just disappeared with people's money? Obviously, you should donate your money to known institutions or poor people that you can verify the need of through friends and family in Punjab.

      Fake Baba

      By Singh1989 · Posted

      Sangat ji,  I know a family who went Sevewal to do seva sometimes end of 2019. They returned last year in great dismay and heart broken.  To repent for their mistakes they approached panj pyaare. The Panj gave them their punishment / order to how t make it up which, with Kirpa, they fulfilled.  They were listening to a fake Baba who, in the end, took all the "Donations " and fled sometime over a year ago. For nearly 4 years this family (who are great Gursikhs once u get to know them) wasted time and effort for this fake Baba. NOT ONLY this one fam. But many, many did worldwide and they took their fam to do seva, in village Sevewal, city Jaitho in Punjab. In the end many families lost money in thousands being behind this Baba. The family, on return, had to get in touch with all the participants and told them to stop.  I am stating this here to create awareness and we need to learn from whom we follow and believe. It's no easy but if we follow the 3 S (Sangat, Simran and Seva) we will be shown the light. As I am writing this the family in question have been doing the same since 2008 onwards and they fell for this Baba... it is unbelievable and shocking.  This am writing in a nutshell as am at work on my break so not lengthy but it deserves a great length.  Especially the family in question, who shed light on youngsters about Sikhi 20 plus years!!
