The alleged mastermind behind the conspiracy to kill former Punjab Chief Minister Parkash Singh Badal was on Friday sent to five-day police remand by a court here.

Jarman Singh was arrested from Bikaner in Rajasthan in a joint operation of Punjab and Rajasthan Police on Thursday.

The accused was brought to Patiala and produced before a court here on Friday which sent him to police remand, a police official said.

Jarman Singh was nabbed from a Gurdwara in Bikaner's Kolayat after Punjab Police shared intelligence inputs with the Anti-Terrorism Squad of Rajasthan Police.
