Three Arrested for Pro-Khalistan Graffiti at Singhu Border Ahead of BRICS Summit
Three men were arrested by Delhi Police for painting pro-Khalistan graffiti at the Singhu Border on September 6, ahead of the 18th BRICS Summit in Delhi. The police allege the act was directed by the banned group Sikhs for Justice (SFJ) and its chief Gurpatwant Singh Pannun, who claimed responsibility on social media. Investigations revealed the mastermind was in contact with a foreign handler and received foreign funding. Security has been heightened in Delhi with over 15,000 police personnel and paramilitary forces deployed for the summit.
