Just fyi. I don't know why it was deleted. (Same person, different spelling: Punia vs Poonia) 208.44.84.138 (talk) 05:52, 18 August 2016 (UTC)[reply]
It was deleted as copyright infringement by @Diannaa:. I find that the murder case is more notable than the single person Relu Ram Punia/Poonia although he can have his own independent article for passing WP:NPOL. But I prefer a redirect to this and have created one now. §§Dharmadhyaksha§§ {Talk / Edits} 06:26, 18 August 2016 (UTC)[reply]
