As the Khalistani terrorist and the US-based chief of Sikhs for Justice (SFJ), Gurpatwant Singh Pannun had made inciteful remarks against India and threatened Indo-Canadian Hindus to leave Canada amid the diplomatic rift over the killing of Hardeep Singh Nijjar, the National Investigation Agency (NIA) confiscated two of his properties in Amritsar and Chandigarh.
Moreover, the probe agency also confiscated 46 kanals of Pannun’s agricultural land in his ancestral village of Khankot in Amritsar district.
After this confiscation, the Khalistani terrorist has lost his rights to the properties and it will now belong to the government.
In 2020, his properties were attached, which meant that he could no longer sell them.
Further, the government has designated Pannun a terrorist under Section 51A of the stringent Unlawful Activities (Prevention) Act (UAPA).
The NIA’s move came amid an escalating diplomatic row between India and Canada over the latter’s allegations of New Delhi’s involvement in the killing of Khalistani terrorist Hardeep Singh Nijjar in June.
Hardeep Singh Nijjar, the chief of the banned Khalistan Tiger Force (KTF), was shot dead by two unidentified miscreants outside a Gurdwara in Surrey, a city in the Canadian province of British Colombia on June 18.
On September 10, Pannun issued threats against Prime Minister Narendra Modi, Home Minister Amit Shah, and External Affairs Minister Jaishankar, among other top leaders while addressing a gathering in Surrey.
“This is a message to those who assassinated Hardeep Singh Nijjar. We are calling for your critical death…Modi, Jaishankar, (Ajit) Doval, (Amit) Shah, we are coming for you,” he can be heard saying in a video.
