After the controversial day-light murder of Congress leader and famous Punjabi singer Sidhu Moosewala, the Punjab government has decided to restore the security of over 400 VIPs, media reports said. Sidhu Moosewala was killed in Punjab’s Mansa in broad daylight, just a day after his security was removed by the Bhagwant-Mann led AAP government. According to reports, in a sealed cover, the Punjab government submitted a report to the Punjab and Haryana High Court saying that the security of all the 424 protectees will be restored from June 7. The high court was hearing a petition by former minister OP Soni, who is among the 424 VVIPs whose security was curtailed.
