Terrorist Gurpatwan Singh Pannu of Sikh for Justice (SFJ) has threatened Assam Chief Minister Himanta Biswa Sarma while the search for Khalistani separatist Amritpal Singh goes on.

In the threat call, Pannu said, “Pro-Khalistan supporters imprisoned in Assam have been tortured. Listen very carefully, CM Sarma, the fight is between Pro-Khalistan Sikhs and the Indian regime”.

He further said, “Sarma, do not fall prey to this violence”.

“We are seeking the liberation of Punjab from Indian occupation through a peaceful democratic process of Khalistan referendum. If your government is torturing and harassing the six (Amritpal aides lodged in the Dibrugarh Central Jail), you will be held accountable”, the SJF General Counsel added.

The Central Reserve Police Forces presently provide Z+ security to the Assam Chief Minister.
