ED may tighten its grip against Bikram Singh Majithia, who was a minister in the former Akali government of Punjab. The ED has written to the Punjab government seeking details of the Majithia family's money transactions from 2006-07 to 2018-19.

According to sources, the Punjab government may share the details of the special investigation team with the ED in a couple of days. The Special Investigation Team has prepared a detailed list of money transactions of Majithia family companies.

Virsa Singh Valtoha, senior leader of Shiromani Akali Dal, called it a political grudge.

The ruling concerns 67-year-old Blair Donnelly, whose trial heard he believed he was acting under divine instruction when he carried out the attack last September. Court testimony showed Donnelly had asked the Holy Spirit for a sign not to proceed, but said he “wanted to obey God”
