chandigarh — Punjab Police on Saturday spread the dragnet to nab five accused who shot dead a financier in Sangrur district and later posted some videos of the crime on Facebook.

“We are working on the case and are hopeful of making early arrests,” Sub-Inspector Sikander Singh of Sangrur’s Longowal town said, noting the Facebook post is under the scanner.

Hardev Singh alias Happy, 25, was shot dead in Longowal town on February 16.

Happy had a verbal duel with Randhawa on January 31 and had been staying in Chandigarh after that, police said.

However, the victim was shot dead the day he entered his hometown on Thursday.

Randhawa posted four videos on his Facebook page after the crime, police said.

According to them, Randhawa is seen listening to a Punjabi song and flashing a gun in the video.

The accused is also seen challenging cops to try and nab them, Singh said. Six police teams have been dispatched to apprehend the accused.

Preliminary investigations have found that the victim and the main accused had some monetary dispute. — PTI
