Papalpreet Singh, a close aide of fugitive Khalistan leader and ‘Waris Punjab De’ chief Amritpal Singh, was brought to Assam’s Dibrugarh Central Jail on Tuesday, a day after being arrested by Punjab Police.
On Monday, Papalpreet was apprehended in Amritsar’s Kathu Nangal neighborhood. Sukhchain Singh Gill, Punjab’s Inspector General of Police (IGP), Headquarters, told the media that Amritpal’s close aide, Papalpreet, was apprehended under the National Security Act (NSA).
In a statement, Gill said that “Papalpreet Singh, the main associate of Amritpal Singh was arrested by Amritsar Rural Police from the Kathu Nangal area.
“The arrest was made under the National Security Act. Apart from being an associate of Amritpal, he was also wanted in six cases.”
In several photographs that surfaced after the duo escaped the dragnet cast for them by the state police, Papalpreet was seen with the fugitive Khalistan leader.
In an unverified video earlier the ‘Waris Punjab De’ chief said he was not “a fugitive” and would soon “appear in front of the world”.
