International Desk, 5th November: Gurpatwant Singh Pannun, a Khalistani terrorist and founder of the banned outfit Sikhs For Justice (SFJ), issued a terror threat in which he threatened to blow up an Air India flight on November 19, coinciding with the ICC Men’s Cricket World Cup final. Pannun, known for his radical views, has made several threats in the past, including warning Hindu Canadians to leave Canada and making threats against top Indian leaders.
In the video released by the radical group, Pannun warned Sikh people not to fly with Air India on November 19, indicating a “global blockade.” The threat comes amid ongoing efforts by Indian authorities to apprehend Pannun and designate him as a terrorist.
The threats made by Pannun and his involvement in various radical activities underscore the ongoing challenges related to extremism and terrorism. The Indian government has been working to counter such threats and to secure international cooperation in addressing these issues.
