Additionally, the safety of other police officers working to solve the murder case from May 29 has been improved. According to sources, each of them will always have a commando with them.

On May 29 of this year, unidentified assailants shot and killed Punjabi musician Shubhdeep Singh Sidhu, also known as Sidhu Moose Wala, in Jawaharke Village in the Mansa District of Punjab. The incident took place two days after the Punjab Police removed the security coverage for 424 people, including Moose Wala.
