“The couple was living in different places in a bid to hoodwink the police. They used to change the places of stay very often to escape arrest. However we tailed them for over two years now and Khushdil was nabbed today morning following a tip-off we received on Wednesday morning. We are carrying out search operations to nab his wife and co-singer Balwinder Kaur as well and I am quite hopeful that we will catch her soon,” informed Charanjeet Singh Khaira, In charge PO wing.
