In a significant breakthrough against Pakistan's ISI-backed terror networks, Amritsar Commissionerate Police have successfully dismantled a terror and extortion module linked to Babbar Khalsa International (BKI) operative Jeevan Fauji. Two of his associates — Karajpreet Singh, resident of Verowal, Tarn Taran, and Gurlal Singh alias Harman, resident of Goindwal Sahib, Tarn Taran — have been apprehended.
Preliminary investigation reveals that Jeevan Fauji, an active BKI member, was orchestrating an extortion racket targeting individuals in Punjab’s border districts. He had provided a .30 bore pistol to Karajpreet and Gurlal and directed them to fire at a furniture shop in the Amritsar area. This firing incident was part of an extortion attempt, with Jeevan Fauji demanding ransom from a relative of the shop owner based in Canada.
Based on the disclosure of accused Gurlal Singh @ Harman, a police team took him along for the recovery of the weapon used in the offence. During this operation, the accused attempted to fire at the police party, prompting a self-defensive retaliation. In the exchange, Gurlal sustained a bullet injury to his left leg. He was immediately shifted to Civil Hospital, Amritsar, for treatment.
An FIR has been registered, and further investigation is underway to completely dismantle this terror network. Punjab Police remains steadfast in its mission to crush terror modules and ensure peace and harmony in the region.
