International News: The name behind the continuous grenade attacks and terrorist activities in Punjab has now been caught by security agencies in the US. Harpreet Singh aka Happy Pasia, who was considered one of the most wanted terrorists in India, has been detained by the US Immigration and Customs Information (ICE).

Pasia is alleged to have carried out or involved a total of 14 terrorist attacks in Punjab in the last six months. In these attacks, BJP leaders' houses, police stations and other sensitive bases were targeted. His arrest is considered to be a big relief for India's security agencies. Happy Pasia has serious allegations of plotting a series of grenade attacks in Punjab, spreInading terror and working at the behest of Pakistan's intelligence agency ISI. This name, which has been present in the eyes of security agencies for a long time, has now been able to control with the help of international law enforcement agencies.

5 Lakh reward on terrorist

Harpreet Singh alias Happy Pasia, a resident of Pasia village in Ramdas police station area of ​​Amritsar (Rural) district, used to work for Babbar Khalsa International (BKI). He worked with BKI terrorist Harvinder Singh Rinda to carry out many small and big terrorist attacks in Punjab. He later joined the Pakistan intelligence agency ISI directly and started a target attachment in Punjab.

The National Investigation Agency (NIA) and the Punjab Police were long active for his arrest. A reward of ₹ 5 lakh was also declared for the informer on it.

Entered in US from Mexico border

Pasia spent some time in the United Kingdom during 2020-21, where her criminal allies live. They provided a burner phone and mobile numbers with codes of different countries to protect it from trekking. He then illegally entered the US through the Mexico border. There he was hidden for a long time.

Screws on Khalistani network active abroad

Prime Minister Narendra Modi recently stated during the recent visit to American and New Zealand that the Khalistani terrorists are a threat to not only India but also global security. After this, India submitted a list of Khalistani terrorists to many countries including the US. Happy Pasia's name was also prominently included in this list.

What Next? 

Now that Pasia is under the grip of American agencies, India may start its extradition process soon. Security agencies hope that his arrest will lead to a befitting attack on terrorist networks in Punjab and many rackets will also be possible.
