In a significant breakthrough against Pakistan’s ISI-backed terror network, the Counter Intelligence unit of Punjab Police in Jalandhar successfully dismantled a Babbar Khalsa International (BKI) module. The operation, conducted under the leadership of the DGP Punjab Police, was guided by the directives of Chief Minister Bhagwant Mann, who has consistently emphasized maintaining law and order across the state.
Bhagwant Mann Praises Punjab Police
According to DGP Punjab Police, the busted module was being operated by UK-based handlers Nishan Jaurian and Adesh Jamarai, acting on instructions from BKI mastermind Harwinder Singh Rinda. During the operation, the police recovered 2.5 kg of IED/RDX along with a remote control device — preventing what could have been a major terror incident in Punjab.
Preliminary investigations have revealed that the IED was intended for a targeted terror attack
Two operatives, identified as Gurjinder Singh and Diwan Singh, were apprehended from Jalandhar. Preliminary investigations have revealed that the IED was intended for a targeted terror attack. A case has been registered at PS SSOC, Amritsar, under relevant sections of the Unlawful Activities (Prevention) Act (UAPA) and the Explosive Substances Act.
The Punjab Police reaffirmed its commitment to dismantling transnational terror and organized crime networks supported by Pakistan’s ISI, ensuring peace and harmony in the state. CM Bhagwant Mann lauded the team for their alertness and swift action, calling it a testament to Punjab’s robust internal security mechanism.
