LUDHIANA: The police have arrested three persons over the killing of a teacher at Sohi village in Ludhiana district more than four years ago. The fourth accused in the case, a woman, died last month.
The arrested persons have been identified as Govind Singh, Sandeep Kumar and Vicky, all residents of Mandi Mullanpur, while Sukhwinder Kaur of Mohi village died on May 2.

Giving details, SSP (rural) Vivek Sheel Soni said the police had registered the case over the blind murder of 78-year-old Harbans Singh on April 12, 2016, which has been finally solved after four years.
According to the case details, Harbans would live alone after the death of his wife, and Sukhwinder Kaur (accused) would work as a domestic help at his place. During the investigation, the police discovered that Sukhwinder Kaur had a criminal background and was in touch with the accused persons.
The accused knew that Harbans Singh was a rich man, who would lend money to people against their gold as security. So, Sukhwinder hatched a conspiracy in collusion with Govind, Sandeep and Vicky. On April 11, 2016 night, they executed their plan.
Although the deceased did not offer any resistance, the accused had tied him with a bed and beat him to death, and decamped with the booty. Thereafter, they visited Sukhwinder Kaur’s house and then dispersed.
Police officials said nearly one-and-half years ago, Sandeep and Vicky had also attacked the dera of eunuchs at Ferozepur and looted gold from there. The accused have also been involved in drug peddling and some other serious crimes, they added.
