Three unidentified men behind Kangra driver's murder
The CCTV footages of Gaggal Chowk showed three men boarding Vijay Kumar's taxi on 14 January.
The other taxi drivers informed police that the three 'unidentified' men came to hire a taxi to Pathankot and Vijay agreed to drop them at a relatively low fare.
After waiting for the whole night for him to return, Vijay's uncle filed a missing report for his nephew.
Taxi driver's dead body recovered, car still missing
ASP Kangra- Vijay Saklani, reported that Vijay Kumar was found dead near a nullah on Shimla-Pathankot highway on 20 January.
The Kangra police had sent three separate teams to Hoshiarpur district and Pathankot and Lakhanpur in J&K to trace those accused for the murder.
Saklani suspected that the accused took the taxi to Talwara in Punjab through an isolated route.
Police fears a repeat of the Pathankot incident
The Police feared a re-run of the terrorist attack on the Pathankot airbase on 2nd January.
Like the recent Pathankot murder case, the Pathankot airbase attack started with an abduction of the Gurdaspur Superintendent of Police along with his cook and a friend.
The investigating agency had moved the court for conducting a lie-detector on the SP for further NIA investigation.
Other threats looming over the Republic day celebrations
PM Modi had received a threat letter from the Islamic State warning him against a probable terror attack for the ban of cow-slaughter.
Defence Minister Parikkar dismissed the threat as it was issued on a 50-paise postcard but investigations were made by ATS.
Another letter was sent to the French Consulate demanding that the French President cancel his Republic day visit to India.
