Singer Daler Mehendi sent to jail for 2 years, Found guilty in human trafficking case!

Veteran Punjabi singer and currently popular singer Mika Singh's elder brother Daler Mehndi convicted in a human trafficking case by a Patiala court in Punjab and sentenced to two years in jail, reports ANI. Daler and his brother, Shamsher Singh, have been found guilty of illegally sending people abroad disguised as members of his troupe by charging hefty “passage money.” A case against Daler, Shamsher & some of his associates was registered by the Patiala police following a complaint filed by one Bakshish Singh of Balbehra village in Punjab in 2003. After the case was registered, several others had also come forward with similar complaints against the two brothers. Earlier, the court had dismissed two discharge petitions filed by the police in favour of the singer and ordered the police to file a fresh challan against Mehndi. The first discharge petition was filed in February 2006 stating that Mehndi should be discharged of all the charges as he had been found to be innocent in the case.
