Ludhiana Brutality: Friend Allegedly Delivers Victim's Severed Hand

A violent incident unfolded in Ludhiana's Lohara Colony on Saturday morning, where a man identified as Shakti Singh, also known as Bhoora, was attacked by acquaintances. The assault, which reportedly took place at a mutual friend's house, resulted in the severe injury of Singh, whose right hand was severed at the wrist. Following the attack, the perpetrators allegedly placed the severed hand in a bag and attempted to have it delivered to Singh by a local grocery shop owner.

Singh was discovered bleeding profusely and was rushed to a hospital, where he later died from significant blood loss. The grocery shop owner had alerted locals and police after being threatened by the assailants when he refused to deliver the severed body part. Preliminary investigations suggest the victim and the accused knew each other, having spent the previous night together. A dispute that arose on Saturday morning escalated into the fatal assault.

Authorities have registered a murder case against seven individuals and have apprehended one suspect, Dalbir Singh. The police are actively searching for the remaining suspects and are investigating the motive behind the attack, with an old rivalry being a possibility. It was also noted that the victim, Shakti Singh, had prior involvement in at least 12 criminal cases, including murder and drug peddling.
