CHANDIGARH: When a significant search operation was started in a Hoshiarpur hamlet late on Tuesday night to try and capture pro-Khalistani activist Amritpal Singh and his mentor Papalpreet Singh, they apparently managed to elude the Punjab Police once more. 

The police were pursuing a white Innova car (PB-10 CK0527) out of Phagwara because they thought Amritpal, the wanted man, and his aide might be inside.  The vehicle drove via a police checkpoint before coming to a stop in Mehtiana's gurdwara.  Officials informed that the car's occupants fled after leaving it near the Gurdwara Bhai Chanchal Singh. 

But, during the search operation, the police detained two of his assistants. The people who were arrested were following the Innova vehicle. To find the suspects, the village has been sealed off, a search operation has begun, and checkpoints and barricades have been set up on the roadways. 

Three weeks after he and his supporters attacked the Ajnala police station near Amritsar to demand the release of an arrested man, the "Waris Punjab De" remains at large following a police crackdown against him and the members of the organisation on March 18. On March 18, the preacher evaded the police chase in the Jalandhar district by swapping cars and posing as someone else. 

Amritpal and his colleagues have been charged with a number of crimes, including inciting class strife, attempting to kill people, attacking police officers, and obstructing the legitimate performance of official duties. On social media on Tuesday, a fresh video of Amritpal Singh and his significant supporter Papalpreet Singh appeared, showing the pro-Khalistan preacher without a turban and donning a mask. 

The undated CCTV footage, allegedly from a market in Delhi, shows the wanted man wearing dark glasses and going down a street. Papalpreet Singh could be seen following behind him while carrying a suitcase. There is no official statement from Punjab Police regarding the recent video.  According to a senior member of the Delhi Police, they are looking into whether Amritpal and his assistant are the people in the video.
