A police official was slain in Punjab state a day after India’s main Sikh political party ratified an agreement with the government to end three years of strife. Police said Sadhu Singh, a district station chief, was shot to death by three unidentified gunmen in the city of Amritsar. Police said they did not know if the slaying of Sadhu Singh, a Sikh, was carried out by Sikh militants who opposed the accord and who have vowed to continue fighting the government.
