‘Khalistani’ Terrorists Reveal How Explosives & Drugs Were Moved By Them

New Delhi: Dangerous explosives like RDX are being transported from Pakistan to Punjab in India, and to the other parts of nation. Police shared this information after questioning the four suspected Khalistani terrorists who were arrested in Haryana’s Karnal earlier this week.

During the interrogation the accused revealed that so far, explosives, weapons and grenades received from Pakistan via drones were delivered to three places. They were delivered at Amritsar-Tarn Taran Highway, Nanded-Hyderabad highway, Adilabad. 

The first was the Amritsar-Tarn Taran highway, where Improvised explosive devices (IEDs) and arms were placed. The second consignment of IEDs and grenades was kept on the Nanded-Hyderabad highway. On their third run, the alleged terrorists were caught with explosives and arms in Karnal, while on their way to Adilabad in Telangana on Thursday.

Accused Amandeep and Gurpreet further said that Babbar Khalsa International terrorist Harvinder Singh, alias Rinda, who is Pakistan-based, had sent IEDs and weapons from Pakistan using drones. In the same manner drugs were also received from across the border. 

The accused received money by selling the drone-delivered drugs to a dealer in Punjab. The explosives, arms and ammunition were delivered to the assigned places.

A search operation has been launched by Karnal Police, for the hawala operator and the major drug smuggler in Punjab. They were coordinating for the illicit operation.

Earlier, IEDs were recovered from the national capital and Uttar Pradesh in two terror-related cases by police. They had discovered that the explosives recovered from the terrorists had first reached Punjab from Pakistan. Later they were sent to the operatives.

On May 5, foiling a major terror plot, four suspected ‘Khalistani’ terrorists on their way to Telangana to deliver explosives were nabbed in Haryana’s Karnal. Arms, ammunition and IEDs were recovered from their vehicle.

The four suspects were identified as Gurpreet, Amandeep, Parminder, and Bhupinder, all residents of Punjab. They have been booked under Explosive Substances Act, 1908 and sections 25, 54 and 59 of the Arms Act.
