JALANDHAR: The Punjab Police on Wednesday arrested the man allegedly responsible for the hit-and-run incident that led to the death of 114-year-old marathon legend Fauja Singh on the Jalandhar-Pathankot highway.
The accused, Amritpal Singh Dhillon, a 26-year-old non-resident Indian (NRI) originally from Kartarpur in Jalandhar, was apprehended two days after the incident.
Dhillon, who resides in Canada with his family, had reportedly returned to India just a week ago.
