The mother of a DPD worker savagely murdered on the streets of Shrewsbury has told how she 'would do anything to have one more moment with him'.

In a poignant and heartrending tribute, Kuljit Kaur, the mother of 23-year-old Aurman Singh, expressed her profound anguish over the loss of her son who was brutally murdered in Shrewsbury. Aurman was killed in a meticulously planned ambush involving a group of eight men who attacked him with various weapons, including an axe and a knife, while he was delivering parcels on August 21, 2023. The nature of the crime highlights the increasing violence and disregard for life prevalent in our society, raising serious questions about community safety and the influences that may lead individuals to commit such heinous acts. The trials of Sehajpal Singh and Mehakdeep Singh, who fled the country after the murder, further underscore the harrowing experience faced by families in the pursuit of justice. Kaur's testimony vividly depicts not just the immediate impact of Aurman's death, but also the long-term psychological effects endured by the family, particularly the young sister whom Aurman had taken under his wing after the death of their father. Her statement serves as both a tribute to her son's character and a chilling reminder of the senseless nature of his death, emphasizing that lives filled with potential can be extinguished in mere moments. The weight of waiting for justice, especially with the added trauma of reliving the loss through multiple trials, adds to the family's suffering. Kuljit Kaur’s words resonate with many who have faced similar tragedies, illustrating the universal pain of losing a loved one to violence. As society reflects on this tragic event, there is a call to action to address the factors leading to such violence and to provide better support systems for families affected by such tragedies.
