Pakistan’s notorious intelligence agency the Inter-Services Intelligence Agency (ISI) have turned several chiefs of Sikh terror groups into drug smugglers. As per an investigation report, Germany is being developed as a base for Khalistan operations by ISI.ISI is using Khalistani terrorists to smuggle narcotics and provide funds to terror various groups for anti-India activities. Earlier this month, India declared at least nine Khalistani terrorists in the designated terror list under the provisions of the Unlawful Activities Prevention Act (UAPA).
A dossier prepared by Indian Security agencies and accessed by Zee News reveals ISI sinister plan to use pro-Khalistani elements based in Pakistan, Germany, UK, Canada and US for promoting terror and terror ideology by luring the youth and spreading hatred against India.
In the biggest narcotics haul in June last year, the Indian customs department sized 532 kg of heroin worth Rs 2,700 crores, which was smuggled into India from a truck through Attari border. The department suspects its link with Germany-based Gurmeet Singh Bagga, which was recovered by the National Investigation Agency (NIA).
Bagga, who has emerged as a common link in the narco-terror network through which drugs and funds for terror activities in Jammu and Kashmir and rest of India were being pushed into from Pakistan.
An NIA investigation has revealed that Pakistan-based terrorist organizations are using narcotic trade to generate funds for terror activities in India. The proceeds of narcotic trade are transferred to Kashmir Valley through couriers and hawala channel for terrorist purposes.
All the Khalistani leaders based in the UK, Germany and Canada have been inciting violence or involved in facilitating terror activities in India in association with the ISI. In 2019, Punjab Police busted a terrorist module of the revived Khalistan Zindabad Force (KZF), backed by a Pakistan and Germany-based terror group that was conspiring to unleash a series of terrorist strikes in Punjab and adjoining states, and seized a huge cache of arms, including five AK-47 rifles, pistols, satellite phones and hand grenades.
Security agencies have also found a link to Germany, UK and Canada, which have emerged as the main base of Khalistani and Kashmiri terrorists. Sympathizers of the groups living in these countries fund drugs in Punjab and some part of these funds are also being diverted to Kashmir for terror activities.
Pakistan’s ISI is strengthening its hold among Germany’s pro-Khalistani terrorists. To dodge Indian security agencies, ISI is engaged in a conspiracy to supply drugs and weapons in India with the help of pro-Khalistani terrorists present in Germany. ISI is trying to strengthen Khalistani terrorists against India so that Punjab can be disturbed.
