Leicestershire authorities announced that it would submit a deliberate referral to the Independent Office of Police Conduct.
Deep Singh Kalia ( 70 ), who knew Kohli for over 30 years, told the Daily Telegraph:” He was such a lovely guy. It is a terrible shock. Both of our ancestors were from India’s Punjab. He loved his registration, and loved his dog, and his relatives. He once owned a stock that produced blouses and jumpers. I’m not sure why anyone would have wanted to harm him in a way this bad. He was a very nice man who “would n’t have done anything to provoke this.”
Harjinder, Kalia’s wife, added:” Bhim would n’t have harmed anyone”.
