Speaking to the media in Amritsar, the MLA said the police were “hand- in-glove with thieves”.
He claimed that there were other senior cops and station house officers too at the party, however, no action has been taken against them.
“Those who have been transferred should be sent to the Indian Reserve Battalion (IRB). Kamal Bori (the gangster in question) has been working in collusion with the police all this while,” he said.
He further said that Bori continues to run several gambling rackets.
