Sources said both men were taken into custody immediately after they landed at the airport, but were released after questioning. Both have been deported and are likely to return on Monday, the sources added.

The duo, according to party sources, were on a holiday trip.

Amarjeet Singh Sandhoa, the MLA from Roop Nagar, is facing a molestation case. A local court framed charges against him last week.

Sandoa was in the news recently when he was allegedly attacked by the mining mafia, who have accused him of extortion.
