On Sunday morning, fugitive Khalistani separatist and Waris Punja De Chief, Amritpal Singh was arrested in Punjab’s Moga by a team led by SSP Amritsar Rural, Satinder Singh. Amritpal had been booked under the National Security Act (NSA). The radical Khalistani separatist was on a run since March 18th.

Following his arrest, Amritpal Singh was flown to the Dibrugarh jail, Assam. He was brought to the Dibrugarh jail by road under heavy security cover. Earlier, a special chartered flight had taken off from the Bathinda airport, accompanied by a team of Punjab police, which reached the Dibrugarh airport, where the Punjab police team was received by Dibrugarh SP, Shwetank Mishra.
