The raids, based on precise intelligence inputs, led to the recovery of a significant quantity of arms and explosives.

In a major breakthrough, the Punjab Police has successfully dismantled two terror modules linked to Babbar Khalsa International (BKI), operating with backing from Pakistan’s ISI. These modules were being controlled from overseas locations in France and Greece, posing a significant threat to regional stability.

Massive Cache of Weapons Seized

The raids, based on precise intelligence inputs, led to the recovery of a significant quantity of arms and explosives. Among the items seized were:

  • 2 rocket-propelled grenades (RPGs) including a launcher
  • 2 improvised explosive devices (IEDs), each weighing 2.5 kg
  • 2 hand grenades equipped with detonators
  • 2 kg of RDX with a remote detonation system
  • 5 high-end pistols including Beretta and Glock models
  • 6 magazines, 44 live rounds
  • A wireless communication set and 3 vehicles used in operations

First Module: France-Based Operation

The first module was orchestrated by Satnam Singh alias Satta, a France-based BKI operative originally from Hoshiarpur. Acting on inputs, the Special State Operations Cell (SSOC) Amritsar arrested four individuals—Jatinder alias Honey and Jagjit alias Jagga from Kapurthala, along with Harpreet and Jagroop from Hoshiarpur.

The operation uncovered an RPG (loaded), two IEDs, grenades with detonators, RDX, and multiple firearms. An FIR has been registered under the UAPA and the Explosives Act.

The second cell was directed by Jaswinder alias Mannu Agwan, a Greece-based handler from Gurdaspur with links to Pakistan-based terrorist Harvinder Rinda. A total of nine individuals, including a minor, were taken into custody from various parts of Punjab.

Police recovered an RPG launcher, two pistols, ammunition, and three vehicles. The case has been registered in Batala under the UAPA and relevant sections of the Explosives Act.

Major Setback to Global Terror Networks

This double bust is being seen as a significant blow to transnational terror networks with roots in Punjab. Authorities believe these modules were preparing for high-profile attacks in the region.

The Punjab Police reaffirmed its commitment to intelligence-driven operations and proactive action to ensure public safety and maintain peace across the state.
