Dhakoli's Family Appeals For Security After Threats Of Shooting; Punjab Govt Urged For Protection
Anita Rani, a resident of Mamta Enclave, Dhakoli, has made a fervent appeal to the Punjab Government for the safety and security of herself and her family. Speaking at a press conference held at the Chandigarh Press Club, Anita Rani recounted her distressing situation caused by an individual who deceitfully managed to transfer ownership of her home to his name eight years ago, and who is now issuing grave threats to her and her family's lives.
Anita Rani revealed that her husband, Rajinder Kumar, is currently unwell, while her son's mental state has been deeply affected by the constant menacing threats. Her efforts to seek justice began when she lodged a case (No. 305/2015) at the Zirakpur (now Dhakoli) police station on December 10, 2015, under sections 354 and 420 against Sukhdev Chowdhary, the son of Joginder Singh from Zirakpur, along with his accomplices. Despite the registered complaint, the police remained inactive for an astonishing span of eight years. Only after the Punjab and Haryana High Court's intervention did the police finally file charges on July 31, 2023. However, this development triggered an escalation in the threats directed toward Anita Rani's family, compelling them to reconsider pursuing the case. It is worth noting that the family had previously been subjected to similar threats.
