How Many People Died?

[Sukhmanii]

First off I heard that Dilawer Singh blew himself and Beant Singh up in a bomb proof car, and nobody else was hurt. Now, apparently, 17 other people died in the blast. What's the truth, and how can the latter be justified?

I don't know much about the incident but I suspect that a number of those individuals would have been the policemen who accompanied Beanta. The justification is if it had not been for this event, there wouldn't have been a Sikh left in Punjab as young men were picked up every day and the dead bodies were then shown as fake encounters.

And in every war innocent people have died not justified but something you try to avoid at all costs. The 16 others were drivers and close security for the thug cm.
