2.5 kg RDX seized in Jalandhar; ISI-backed Babbar Khalsa terror module busted, two arrested

Chandigarh, Oct 9 (UNI) Punjab Police’s Counter Intelligence unit has foiled a major terror plot with the recovery of 2.5 kg of RDX from Jalandhar and the arrest of two suspects linked to an ISI-backed Babbar Khalsa International (BKI) module.
The arrested individuals have been identified as Gurjinder Singh and Diwan Singh. Along with the explosives, the police also seized a remote control device suspected to have been used for triggering the explosive. Initial investigations suggest that the consignment was sent from across the border by handlers associated with Pakistan’s Inter-Services Intelligence (ISI).
According to officials, the module was being operated by UK-based handlers Nishan and Aadesh under the directions of BKI mastermind Harvinder Singh Rinda. The explosives were allegedly meant for carrying out a major terror strike during the upcoming festive season in Punjab.
