A gangster shot dead a 25-year-old financier in Longowal city of Sangrur district in Punjab and posted four videos after the murder to justify his valor. The videos reportedly got hundreds of likes and shares.
Davider Singh alias Babli Randhawa who was recently released from jail in a different case, post four Facebook live videos after shooting four bullets into 25-year-old Hardev Singh’s head, Hindustan Times reported.
In the first video he’s seen flashing a gun and singing along to the chorus of “Maare him rich fire Jat ne” (The jat has fired in the chest).
In another video which garnered 150 likes, he justified the reasons behind the killing.
The late Hardev had reportedly lent Rs 5 lakhs to Babli, which led to a dispute between the two followed by the murder. Calling Hardev “para veer” (dear brother), Babli said he couldn’t tolerate the deceased’s betrayal.
By 7 pm on Friday, his video had 6200 views on Facebook and 23,000 views on YouTube.
Senior superintendent of police Inderbir Singh initiated a manhunt for Babli and are trying to ascertain the location from where he had uploaded on Facebook.
