The National Investigation Agency (NIA) took decisive action on Friday, conducting raids at multiple locations in Punjab. This move is directly linked to the ongoing investigation into violent attacks perpetrated by Khalistani supporters against the Indian High Commission in Ottawa earlier this year. The raids specifically targeted the residences of family members associated with Amritpal Singh, a prominent figure with alleged ties to Khalistani groups.
Reports indicate that the first raid was conducted at the residence of Pragat Singh, Amritpal Singh’s uncle, located in the Baba Bakala subdivision of Punjab. Subsequent raids were carried out at the homes of his brother-in-law and another relative. These actions underscore the seriousness with which the NIA is treating this case and their commitment to uncovering the full extent of the involvement of individuals linked to Amritpal Singh in the Ottawa attacks.
The NIA’s investigation into the attacks on the Indian High Commission in Ottawa is a complex and sensitive matter. The raids in Punjab represent a significant step in gathering evidence and identifying those responsible for these acts of violence. Stay tuned for further updates as the investigation progresses.
