The National Investigation Agency lodged a charge sheet at a special court in Mohali, naming six suspects in the Shambhu‑Rajpura railway line blast.
A special National Investigation Agency (NIA) court in Mohali on Saturday received a charge sheet detailing the prosecution of six individuals in connection with the Shambhu‑Rajpura railway line blast. The accused identified are Gurjinder Singh alias Biyanat Baba, Satnam Singh, Pardeep Singh alias Khalsa, Kulvinder Singh alias Bagga, Gurpreet Singh alias Gopi and Manjit Singh.
The filing marks a significant step in the investigation of the railway line explosion that disrupted services on the Shambhu‑Rajpura route. The NIA, which handles cases with cross‑border terrorism links, has indicated that the suspects are believed to have connections to networks operating from Pakistan.
The charge sheet outlines the alleged roles of each accused, including planning, procurement of explosives and execution of the attack. The court will now proceed with the trial, where the prosecution will present evidence to substantiate the allegations.
Legal experts note that the swift filing of the charge sheet underscores the agency's focus on counter‑terrorism measures and its intent to bring the accused to justice under Indian law.
The case remains under close watch as authorities continue to investigate any broader conspiratorial links and assess the security implications for railway infrastructure in the region.
