The three police commandos posted at Haryana Police Academy (HPA), Madhuban (Karnal), who escorted Sirsa-based Dera Sacha Sauda head Gurmeet Ram Rahim Singh during the verdict in rape case against him at the special CBI court here on August 25 have been sent to a three-day police remand on Thursday. They were arrested on Wednesday night.

Panchkula deputy commissioner of police (DCP) Manvir Singh told TOI that the special investigation team (SIT) in the dera case called the three Haryana police commandos—head constables Rajesh and Amit and constable Rajesh—to be a part of the investigations in the case.

DCP Singh said, "The three commandos were identified through the CCTV camera footage and probe by the SIT team members after which a notice was sent to them to appear before the SIT."
