The development came a week after Punjab Police had dismissed Inspector Bajwa and his two cop aides, a trio posted at Narcotic Control Cell in Ferozepur after they falsely implicated two persons in a drug case and also extorted a huge amount of money from them.

Inspector Bajwa, assistant sub-inspector Angrej Singh and head constable Joginder Singh, posted at Narcotic Control Cell in Ferozepur, were dismissed from the service on 25 July after an internal probe revealed they implicated two persons in a drug case by planting on them one kilogram heroin and showing recovery of Rs Five lakh from their possession.
