Akashdeep Malhotra,who was found bludgeoned to death near Sukhna lake on Wednesday,was murdered by his friend Jatinder Pal Sharma,a Mohali resident. Jatinder and Akash,both went to Kaimbwala liquor vend,where they both consumed liquor and on way back home,Jatinder brutally murdered Akash. The possibility of Jatinder being accompanied by other people is also not ruled out and the police are yet investigating role of other people in the brutal murder.
Jatinder,in his preliminary interrogation to the police mentioned that he was nursing an old grudge against Akash,and thus murdered him. The Ford Fiesta car,which was used by the assailant Jatinder,to dump Akash¿s body near Gursagar Gurdwara,Sukhna lake,was also impounded by the police.
According to the police,Jatinder had already planned Akash¿s murder and thus took him to Kaimbwala liquor vend,with an intention of making him drunk and then murdering him. Soon after identifying Akash,the police scrutinized his mobile phone call records and reached Jatinder. Since Jatinder was the one who had made the last few phone calls to Akash on his mobile phone,the police questioned Jatinder,who succumbed to the police queries and narrated the entire incident.
Jatinder,son of a government employee in Punjab,had confessed to the murder and was arrested on the charges. He was taken in police custody,from the court,for further custodial interrogation.
