Babbar Khalsa behind planting of explosives near Nabha and Halwara

LUDHIANA : The Punjab Police claims to have solved the mystery of explosives found near Nabha and Halwara last month. The Babbar Khalsa International (BKI) is alleged to be behind planting these explosives to create panic around January 26.

Huge explosive materials, including urea, petrol and RDX, were found from two places near Nabha earlier this year and another consignment of about 10 kg of urea, 5 litres of petrol and some RDX were found lying near the auditorium of the IAF station, Halwara, in Ludhiana on January 25.

The police authorities had been working on the mystery and have finally come to the conclusion that it was the handiwork of BKI militants. However, the attempts failed as the police detected the explosive material lying on roads and took the same in custody.

The police interrogated a number of suspects and some hardcore militants lodged in jails. It has also detained some youths in this connection. It is learnt that the BKI is under ISI's pressure to activate some youths in Punjab. However, the attempts to recruit youths in the task have not met with much success, resulting in the failure of the motive.

Intelligence sources claim that there are still militants in Pakistan who are active in Punjab and a few of the leaders have moved to Germany, which is an epicentre of activities of Punjab militants. Intelligence reports also suggest that the ISI is trying to create a nexus between Babbars and Lashkar-e-Toiba to have joint operations in Punjab.
