With arrest of two key men, Khalistani ‘terror cells’ busted in Punjab

Hindustan Times  

Punjab Police have busted two sleeper cells of terror outfits Khalistan Tiger Force and Babbar Khalsa International that were allegedly preparing to target different dera heads, retired top-ranking police officers, and activists of right-wing Hindu organisations. Top police sources said the month-long and carefully crafted operation reached a decisive stage on Tuesday night when cops arrested Mandeep Singh, an operative of the KTF, from Jagraon near Ludhiana, and Arvinder Singh alias Mitha Singh of BKI from a village adjoining Nawanshahr. Canada-based Hardeep Singh Nijjar of the KTF was Mandeep’s handler, said sources, adding that Mitha had developed links with Germany based son of Wadhawa Singh, BKI chief who is presently based in Pakistan.
