Gangster Deepak Tinu, Escape from Police Custody and his girlfriend
For the unversed, a key suspect in the murder of the Punjabi singer Sidhu Moose Wala murder case- Gangster Deepak Tinu escaped from the custody of the Crime Investigation Agency (CIA) unit of Punjab’s Mansa police. Deepak Tinu, who is said to be an accomplice of gangster Lawrence Bishnoi was reportedly brought on a production warrant from the Goindwal Sahib jail in another case by the Mansa police. Furthermore, He is one of the 24 accused persons who have been charge-sheeted for the murder of the singer-cum-Congress leader. Pritpal Singh, Mansa CIA in-charge and also a member of the special investigation team (SIT) probing the Moosewala murder case, was suspended and subsequently arrested.
At first it was reported that Deepak fled from the hotel he was brought in by the former ASI, however, True Scoop revealed that the Gangster escaped from Police custody from the former ASI's residence. Furthermore, True Scoop in its special report revealed that the girlfriend with whom Deepak Tinu went to meet was facilitated by Pritpal Singh, Mansa CIA in charge (now suspended and arrested). Not only this but it was also revealed that the girlfriend with whom Gangster Deepak Tinu fled after the meeting is a Punjab Police constable.
It is pertinent to mention here that the Punjab Police had launched a manhunt to nab both Deepak and his alleged lady love with who he fled away. With Deepak Tinu's alleged girlfriend finally in the Punjab Police's clutches, it is expected that she might point out the whereabouts of the gangster.
