Two years after his arrest from Thailand, Jagtar Singh Tara, an accused in the Beant Singh assassination case, has alleged that Babbar Khalsa International head Wadhwa Singh, reportedly based in Pakistan, is getting Sikh youths arrested and smuggling drugs into Punjab.
In a letter to the Sikh Panth, sent to various media organisations by his lawyer Simranjit Singh, Tara has accused Wadhawa of revealing his secret identity and whereabouts in Thailand to the Indian security agencies, who got him arrested in January 2015. Tara, who is lodged in the Model Jail here, alleged that Wadhawa was gathering funds for the Sikh cause but was actually hand in glove with the intelligence agencies.
Tara has named several persons whom Wadhawa allegedly got killed at the Indian border or arrested by the Punjab Police. He has accused Wadhawa of running a racket of smuggling ‘chitta’ into Punjab. A senior police officer said Tara, during his interrogation, had accused Wadhawa of giving him away to Indian agencies.
