Mohali, Dec. 25 -- A special CBI court in Mohali has pronounced its verdict in a 15-year-old death case from Bariyali village in the Kharar area, sentencing Dilbar Singh, brother of the then village sarpanch Kulwant Singh, to eight years of imprisonment, while acquitting other accused, including Mohali mayor Amarjit Singh. The court held Dilbar guilty under Section 304 (culpable homicide not amounting to murder) of the Indian Penal Code (IPC) and sentenced him to eight years of imprisonment, along with a fine of Rs.25,000. The case dates back to December 19, 2010, when a dispute over vehicle parking in Bariyali village turned violent. According to the prosecution, firing took place from both sides during the clash. Rattan Singh sustained a gunshot injury to the head and later died at the Mohali civil hospital. Initially, police had registered an FIR at Balongi police station under sections related to murder, attempt to murder, unlawful assembly, criminal conspiracy and the Arms Act. The FIR was lodged by Harjinder Singh, son of the deceased. The FIR named Kulwant and Dilbar as the persons who fired shots and accused Amarjit Singh of involvement in a criminal conspiracy. Police later also booked Balbir Singh Sidhu, who was then the sitting Congress MLA from Kharar, under charges of criminal conspiracy. On October 12, 2012, the case was handed over to the CBI by the Punjab and Haryana high court. During the trial, the court found that the prosecution failed to prove the involvement of several accused beyond reasonable doubt. On Saturday, the court acquitted Amarjit Singh, former sarpanch Kulwant Singh and Jatinder Singh of all charges. The court accepted the defence plea that Amarjit Singh was not present at the spot at the time of the incident....
