Lovepreet Toofan, aide of Waris Punjab De chief Amritpal Singh, has been released. After coming out of jail, Toofan and other members of the organization raised slogans of Bole So Nihal. Now he along with his companions will go to Sri Harmandir Sahib to pay obeisance. During this, Lovepreet said that he was not ill-treated by the police in custody.
Earlier, the SSP had said that Toofan presented evidence that he was not present at the spot. We have submitted it to the court. Amritpal’s colleague Pappal Preet Singh said that Amritpal is not fighting a personal battle, he is fighting the battle of the Sikh community. He said that after the release of the Toofan Singh, all his workers would also go to Sri Harmandir Sahib to pay obeisance. On Friday, DGP Gaurav Yadav talked to journalists regarding the whole matter. The DGP said that he had approached the local police and raised doubts about the veracity of the FIR. He was assured of a fair probe. The protesters had said that they wanted to protest peacefully. Peaceful protests were allowed in keeping with democratic conventions. SSP Amritsar Rural told that he was assured that the protesters will stop where they were asked to stop. But that day the police was attacked, sharp weapons were used, stones were pelted. The attack was carried out under the cover of Guru Granth Sahib and Palki Sahib, in which 6 policemen were injured.
Waris Punjab De chief Amritpal Singh said that our cause of Khalistan should not be seen as evil and taboo. It should be seen from an intellectual point of view as to what could be its geopolitical benefits. It is an ideology and ideology never dies. We are not demanding anything from Delhi.
The Special Investigation Team (SIT) will now investigate the cases registered against the associates of Waris Punjab De organization chief Amritpal. Despite this assurance from the police, the protesters have continued to protest outside the police station. Punjab Police Border Zone IG Munish Chawla and Amritsar (Rural) SSP Satinder Singh say that a meeting of police officers with the representatives of Waris Punjab De has taken place.
The workers of the organization agreed to withdraw the protest and assured that the workers will not spoil the atmosphere in any way. After completing the legal process from the police side, the activist of Jathebandi released Lovepreet Singh on Friday. SIT is being formed to cancel the case and investigate it to the bottom. He said that the talks between the police officers and the representatives of the group took place in a cordial atmosphere.
