A court has summoned five police personnel—Inspectors Ronni Singh, Harry Boparai, Harjinder Singh, and Shaminder Singh, along with Constable Jai Singh—to face trial on March 16. This action stems from an alleged assault on a serving Army Colonel, identified as Colonel Bath, and his son, Angad Singh Bath.
The incident reportedly took place on the intervening night of March 13 and 14, 2025, as the father and son were returning to Patiala from Delhi. Colonel Bath's statement, recorded by police at Rajindra Hospital, Patiala, on March 14, 2025, named Ronni Singh, Hary Boparai, Harjinder Singh Dhillon, Surjeet Singh, Rajbir Singh, and other unknown individuals as assailants. The article identifies the summoned individuals as policemen who held various designations, including SHO, in-charge of Special Cells, and CIA Inspector, at the time of the alleged incident.
The allegations detail that certain accused individuals reportedly thrashed Angad and his father with fists and sticks, threatened customers at a nearby establishment to vacate the premises, and vandalized Colonel Bath's car.
