The NIA court has asked for an explanation from the additional superintendent at Model Jail, Chandigarh, on how an accused in last year's Sector-5 firing case was shifted to an observation home in Hoshiarpur without the court's permission, resulting in delay in trial.

CHANDIGARH:

"One of the accused, namely Kamaldeep Singh, has not been produced by the jail authority, rather a copy of letter from additional superintendent, Model Jail, addressed to superintendent, Special Home, Hoshiarpur, vide which the aforesaid has been shifted to Observation Home, Hoshiarpur, has been sent to this court by the additional superintendent," observed the court, directing the jail official to give an explanation behind this move by April 25.

The court also issued fresh non-bailable warrants (NBW) against Canada-based gangster Goldy Brar and another accused Gurpreet, who remain absconding.
