Four suspected Babbar Khalsa terrorists held in Ludhiana

Chandigarh, Oct 2 : Four suspected terrorists of Khalistani terror outfit Babbar Khalsa were taken into custody from Punjab's Ludhiana district, police said on Monday.

They were arrested following the interrogation of seven members of the Babbar Khalsa who were arrested on Saturday after the police busted a terror module with direct links to the Khalistani terror outfit.

Three pistols and some ammunition was also seized from the men arrested earlier.

Ludhiana Police Commissioner R.N. Dhoke told the media on Saturday that the group planned to target those who were opposed to or writing against Khalistani ideology and radical Sikh organisations.

Those arrested were allegedly linked to and were funded by Surinder Singh Babbar, who is said to be based in London as of now.

Dhoke claimed that Babbar was providing money and weapons to the members of the terrorist group.
