New Delhi, February 12

A special NIA court in Mohali has issued non-bailable warrants against two alleged terrorists belonging to the Khalistan Zindabad Force in a case related to dropping of arms and ammunition in Punjab by drones originating from Pakistan.

The warrants have been issued against Ranjeet Singh Neeta, a resident of RS Pura in Jammu, who is based in Pakistan at present and Gurmeet Singh alias Bagga, a resident of Hoshiarpur district in Punjab who is based in Germany now, an NIA spokesperson said.

The case pertains to dropping of arms, ammunition, explosives, communication devices and fake Indian currency notes (FICN) in September last year at Chola Sahib in Punjab by unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) or drones that originated from Pakistan.

“During investigation, the role of Neeta, Pakistan-based chief of Khalistan Zindabad Force (KZF), and Singh, a key operative of KZF based in Hamburg, has been found in the conspiracy of trafficking of illegal arms, ammunition, explosives, communication devices and FICNs into India, the spokesperson said. “Investigation has disclosed that the two have been able to recruit certain individuals from Punjab for carrying out terrorist activities,” the spokesperson said. — PTI
