Chandigarh, 24 December
In the Punjab Police’s investigation into the terror module under the patronage of Pakistan-based Khalistan Zindabad Force (KZF) chief Ranjit Singh Neeta, the name of British Sikh soldier Jagjit Singh alias Fateh Singh Baghi has come to light, who was arrested in the recent police stations of the state. It is said behind the grenade attacks. Hand grenades and IEDs were used in these series of terrorist attacks in October and November in Punjab. A top officer of the Punjab Police targeted the houses of leaders of Hindu organizations in Ludhiana with petrol bombs. After this, in December, a hand grenade was thrown at the police post under the Kathgarh police station of Shaheed Bhagat Singh Nagar district. Neeta and Fateh Singh Baghi took responsibility for these attacks on social media.
During the investigation of the modules of Khalistan Zindabad Force, the name of Jagjit Singh (37), a Sikh soldier in the British Army, who later hailed from Miyanpur village in Tarn Taran, came to light. It is suspected that Jagjit Singh was using the name Fateh Singh Baghi to hide his real identity. The police officer said that Jagjit Singh had gone to the UK on a student visa in 2010. After completing his studies, he joined the British Army in 2013. Apart from Jagjit Singh’s grandfather, father and brother, many other relatives have been in the Indian Army. After moving to UK, Jagjit Singh Babbar came in contact with Khalsa International (BKI) and Khalistan Zindabad Force. Jagjit Singh formed an organization called Akaljot Khalistan Force (AKF) and tried to resume terrorist activities in Punjab by recruiting new members. It is not known whether Jagjit Singh is still in the British Army or not. -News-Patiala
