Mystery over priest’s coffin

Punjab Police on Friday ordered a high-level inquiry into the disappearance of a coffin of Christian missionary, Fr. Mark Barnes at Gumtala, later found vandalised. ‘‘A high-level inquiry headed by the SSP, Amritsar, was ordered. The report will be delivered in seven days,’’ DIG P.S. Gill said. The coffin disappeared over a dispute on whether it should be buried at St. Mary’s School, or a public graveyard. —PTI
