A boy from Okara was arrested after he posted about a ceremony marking the death anniversary of Sidhu Moose Wala which planned aerial firing.

The boy, named Sharjeel Malik, had put up a poster on social media saying that a khatam would be arranged for the singer from Indian Punjab who was assassinated this day last year.

The poster circulating on social media even identified the location as Samadpura’s university street and contained an open invitation to all badmaash (hooligans). In a hilarious twist, the invite mentioned jatts as the only other group other than the badmaash.

The poster said that firing would take place after the khatam. It also mentioned lyrics from Sidhu’s songs such as jatt da muqabla dass mainu kithay aa and ehda uthuga jawani ch janaza.

However, Okara’s DPO sprung into action as soon as the poster went online. Police from Police Station B Division went to the arrest that Sharjeel had identified himself and arrested him.

In keeping with the fact that the whole thing had been viral on social media, of course the photo of the arrest was posted online as well.

Sidhu Moose Wala was killed when unidentified assailants shot him 30 times in the Jawaharke village of Mansa district, India. His father told media recently that the police investigation was moving too ‘slowly’.
