New Delhi, Dec 07, 2020: The Special Cell of Delhi Police on Monday arrested five suspected terrorists from the Shakarpur area after an encounter.
According to sources in Delhi Police, of the five arrested, two are from Punjab and the rest are residents of Jammu and Kashmir. The five, allegedly linked to Khalistan, were arrested on Monday after an encounter in Shakarpur.
Delhi Police sources claimed that the arrested men were involved in the murder of Shaurya Chakra awardee Balwinder Singh Bhikhiwind.
Two motorcycle-borne assailants had shot dead Balwinder Singh Bhikhiwind at his residence in Bhikhiwind in Punjab’s Tarn Taran in October.
The Delhi Police added that following the encounter, arms and ammunition were recovered and said banned drugs were also seized from the possession of the accused.
“The group was backed by ISI for narco-terrorism. The name of the terror organisation is yet to be confirmed,” Delhi Police sources told India Today.
The arrests come weeks after police nabbed two suspected Jaish-e-Mohammad terrorists from Delhi’s Sarai Kale Khan.
The two suspected Jaish terrorists were identified as residents of Jammu and Kashmir Abdul Latif Mir and Mohd Ashraf Khatana.
