Ropar, January 27: A retired police officer was arrested today in connection with the killing of a Panchayat Samiti member here last week.
Didar Singh, a former DSP, was nabbed after villagers and relatives of the slain panchayat functionary Netar Singh held a demonstration here demanding his arrest.
He has been sent to two days’ police custody by a local court.
Netar Singh was killed at the mini secretariat complex here last Monday over a dispute regarding the ownership of an auto showroom.
