Police charges Jaswant Thekedar for theft on gurdwara premises

JASWANT THEKEDAR THE DISGRACED EX PRESIDENT OF MIRI PIRI GURDWARA - THE HINDUTVA INDIAN AGENT WHO GOT RE-MARRIED AROUND A HAVAN EARLIER THIS YEAR IS CHARGED WITH THEFT ON GURDWARA PREMISIS BY THE POLICE AS PER VIDEO & OTHER EVIDENCES
 
Jaswant Singh Thekedar, the controversial former president of Gurdwara Miri Piri, The Broadway, Southall, UK, has been charged by the police for committing theft. He will now be produced in the Ealing Magistrates Court on 30th November. The police confirmed this to S Sohan Singh Dhesi on 21.11.2012 because Thekedar has been charged following his complaint. He had been arrested after Akashradio.com published news and video of the incident, and  has now been charged after the investigation. This be noted that Thekedar had been caught on video, committing ‘theft’ in the room of Sardar Sohan Singh Dhesi, which is located on the gurdwara premises. S Sohan Singh, the registered owner of the property, had complained to the police, listing the stolen articles as: important documents regarding Miri Piri Gurdwara, Southall; Gurdwara Baba Sang Ji, Birmingham; old passport, bank documents, some cash and his personal valuables etc. He had also claimed that the theft was committed to remove all legal and documentary evidence that was needed in the impending court case.
However, Jaswant Singh Thekedar had claimed that he went in the room to rectify some gas leak that needed urgent attention. The video of the same can be seen on the akashradio website.
Gurdwara Miri Piri, Southall, has been in the news recently because of the management and property ownership dispute arisen amongst S Sohan Singh Dhesi, S Mohinder Singh Rathour and S. Jagjit Singh Bhogal (claimants) and Jaswant Singh Thekedar, his wife Amrik Kaur and his brother in law B.S. Mann (defendants). The case is pending in the High Court.
Earlier, B.S. Mann had been charged by police and was produced in the Isleworth Crown Court in one of the related cases, while the Thekedar’s accomplice (claimed to be a committee member) and seen in the theft video was arrested and released on bail. Both of them have been banned from coming to the gurdwara.
According to sources, Thekedar had resigned from the presidentship of the gurdwara management, and S Mohinder Singh Rathour has removed him from the trusteeship according to the gurdwara constitution with the veto vote of trustee nominee S Sukhwinder Singh. Despite all this, Thekedar was still running the gurdwara management.
On the other hand, Thekedar had claimed that the constitution according to which he has been ‘removed’ stopped existing since 2002 and there’s a new constitution that has come into force since 2010 according to which he is running the gurdwara.
The case is now scheduled to come up for hearing in the High Court of Honourable Mr Justice Hildyard on December 11, 2012, the outcome of which will decide who will run the gurdwara.
