Overview
- Authorities recovered and identified the body of 29-year-old singer Inder (Yashinder) Kaur from the Neelo/Sirhind canal after she went missing on May 13 and sent the remains to Samrala Civil Hospital for post-mortem.
- Police say the singer was likely shot inside her Ford Figo before her car and body were dumped in the canal, and investigators have opened a forensic probe to establish cause, timing and evidence degraded by flowing water.
- Officers have arrested at least two men tied to the case, including the prime suspect’s father and an associate, and later took an additional aide into custody after recovering two pistols alleged to have been used in the crime.
- Police and the family allege the prime accused, identified as Sukhwinder Singh (alias Sukha), travelled from Canada to India via Nepal to carry out the attack and then fled back to Canada, prompting plans for international record checks and cooperation.
- The family says a rejected marriage proposal and a social‑media relationship that began on Instagram provide a motive, and relatives have raised questions about the speed of the initial police response and evidence preservation.
