Punjab Police has successfully thwarted a major assassination plot by arresting two individuals believed to be tasked with carrying out targeted killings of rival gang members in the state. The operation, confirmed on Sunday, highlights an ongoing conspiracy to incite terror and unrest in Punjab under foreign directives.

The arrested individuals, identified as Lovedeep Singh, alias Love, and Tek Chand, alias Tinku, are reportedly linked to notorious foreign-based gangsters Gurdev Jassal and Gurlal, also known as Gullu, connected with the Babbar Khalsa International (BKI) terrorist organization. The Punjab Police's Director General, Gaurav Yadav, stated that the arrests represent a significant breakthrough in dismantling the gangster-terror network.

Authorities recovered three .32 calibre pistols with live cartridges from the suspects. Investigations are ongoing to further unveil their network and define broader conspiratorial connections. The Punjab Police reaffirms its commitment to ending the gangster-terror syndicate and ensuring sustained peace in the region.
