(Representational)Gangster Jaggu Bhagwanpuria was on Saturday sent to judicial custody by the Mohali district court in Punjab in a case of extortion and forgery, but Jalandhar police took him in custody for questioning in a 2014 case.
Bhagwanpuria was produced in the court of Judicial Magistrate (First Class), Sonali Singh in connection with an extortion, forgery and making a passport by using fake documents case on Saturday. The FIR in the case had been registered at the state crime branch earlier this year.
Earlier, gangster Lawrence Bishnoi too had been produced in court in the same case and sent to judicial custody. Bhagwanpuria is a close associate of Bishnoi, who along with Goldy Brar, have been named as the prime conspirators in the murder of Punjabi singer Sidhu Moosewala in May this year.
Later on Saturday, Jalandhar police took Bhagwanpuria on production warrant for his questioning in an Arms Act case registered in 2014 (FIR 80).
Jagdeep Singh alias Jaggu Bhagwanpuria, who hails from Gurdaspur district in the Majha region, was a Kabaddi player before entering the crime world. He is known to have worked with Bishnoi’s gang to threaten members of rival Bambiha gang in the past. He was also considered close to slain gangster Sukha Kahlawan, who was gunned down by Vicky Goundar.
Bhagwanpuria was notorious for running an extortion racket from inside the jail was and was actively involved in making moves in rural kabbadi leagues where he allegedly used to decide the outcome of matches.
