Delhi Police Increase Surveillance Over Shahzad Bhatti Threat Ahead of BRICS Summit
Delhi Police have heightened surveillance in response to intelligence suggesting Pakistan-based terrorist Shahzad Bhatti may plan low-intensity attacks targeting peripheral areas or police personnel in Delhi during the upcoming BRICS Summit. Authorities are monitoring over 2,000 individuals, including suspects and proclaimed offenders. The threat aims to create panic rather than cause major casualties. Security measures have been intensified ahead of the summit, with concerns about possible involvement of the Babbar Khalsa International group.
