In a major breakthrough, the Punjab Police have identified a 37-year-old British Army soldier, Jagjeet Singh, as a key figure linked to the Khalistan Zindabad Force (KZF), a separatist terror module. The investigation, which spanned several months, has revealed that Singh, a resident of Mianpur, was allegedly involved in activities aimed at supporting the Khalistani movement. The case has raised serious concerns regarding the role of overseas operatives in orchestrating terrorist activities in India.
Jagjeet Singh, who has been serving in the British Army, was reportedly using his position to provide logistical and financial support to the KZF, which is known for its violent and disruptive efforts to revive the Khalistani cause. The Punjab Police’s intelligence unit intercepted communications that pointed to Singh’s involvement with KZF operatives based in both India and abroad. Authorities have now launched a wider investigation to determine the full extent of his role in the terror network.
The discovery of Singh’s connections to the KZF comes amidst heightened security measures in Punjab, where there have been multiple instances of Khalistani separatist activities, including attacks on police posts and government officials. The investigation has sparked diplomatic discussions between India and the UK, with the Indian government seeking further cooperation in uncovering the extent of foreign nationals’ involvement in domestic terrorism.
The Punjab Police have stated that Singh, along with several accomplices, was part of a network that used social media platforms, encrypted messaging services, and financial channels to support and execute terrorist acts. Authorities are also working closely with international intelligence agencies to trace other potential operatives linked to the Khalistani movement.
