New Delhi: Khalistani leader Gurpatwant Singh Pannun wants to divide India and create many countries, NDTV reported quoting sources.
Pannun’s properties in Chandigarh and Amritsar were seized last week.
The report quoting the National Investigation Agency’s dossier, Pannun has “challenged the unity and integrity of India by audio messages” and “wants to create a separate country for people of Kashmir… and create a Muslim country”.
More recently, he threatened senior Indian diplomats and government functionaries in Canada amid the massive diplomatic row between India and Canada over the killing of another Khalistani leader Hardeep Singh Nijjar.
Canada Prime Minister Justin Trudeau has kicked up an international fight after claiming “agents” of the Indian government killed Nijjar, who was a Canadian citizen.
The dossier on Pannun also says he “wants to create a Muslim country that he wants to name as ‘Democratic Republic of Urdustan’, and that he is radicalising people in Jammu and Kashmir to enable the latter’s separation from the Indian Union.”
