Guwahati: Terrorist Gurpatwan Singh Pannu of Khalistani outfit Sikh for Justice (SFJ) has issued a threat against Assam Chief Minister Himanta Biswa Sarma warning him of consequences if the six Amritpal Singh aides lodged in the state’s jail are tortured, media reports said.

According to India Today, in a threat call made to Assam journalists, Pannu said, "Pro-Khalistan supporters imprisoned in Assam have been tortured. Listen very carefully, CM Sarma, the fight is between Pro-Khalistan Sikhs and the Indian regime."

In the threat call, the SJF General Counsel further said, "Sarma, do not fall prey to this violence."

"We are seeking the liberation of Punjab from Indian occupation through a peaceful democratic process of Khalistan referendum. If your government is torturing and harassing the six (Amritpal aides lodged in the Dibrugarh Central Jail), you will be held accountable," added Pannu.

Punjab Police has apprehended or taken into custody several individuals linked to on criminal charges related to inciting discord, attempting to harm and assault police officers, and impeding the legal duties of public servants. The authorities have also invoked the stringent National Security Act against some of Amritpals' associates.
