I am Teja Singh, from the USA and we have a lot of problems from India. I have a family in punjab, village Balalon DIS. KPT. The Punjab state police is giving my family a very hard time,every week, every month and today they crossed their limits.

They took my teenage nephew and they are asking for money, near about 50,000 ruppes. He is not a criminal at all. He is innocent 101%. They took him just because they want to take money. They assulated my family members and talked very wrongly. They also beat up my nephew very curly and they are asking for money. We already mailed indian prime minster there is no action.
Last year the police took about 250,000 US dollars from us. And still they are after us for more money. They are taking my old mother and father for no reason. Please try to help us and e-mail us as soon as you can.

OR call me at 973-960-8333 OR 973-978-7009

Thank you very much,
