Punjab’s late chief minister Beant Singh was assassinated on 31 August 1995 at Chandigarh by members of militant outfit Babbar Khalsa group. The mastermind of the attack includes Jagtar Singh Hawara and Rajoana. Both were awarded death sentence by a special CBI court.
While commuting the death sentence of Hawara into life, the high court had, however, upheld the death sentence to Rajoana who had not opposed the punishment awarded to him in 2007 after an 11-year-old trial in a special trial court.
