CHANDIGARH:

The hearing was deferred as the presiding judge was not holding the court on Tuesday. It was on November 25; the high court had stayed trial court proceedings against the former DGP on the plea seeking quashing of the FIR and subsequent chargesheet filed by the Punjab Police. Multani was allegedly picked up by two officers in 1991 after a terrorist attack on Saini, who then was Chandigarh senior superintendent of police (SSP), in which four policemen in his security were killed. The police later claimed that Multani escaped from the custody of the Qadian police.
