Trump’s mass deportation raids result in 655% spike in arrests of terrorists

2025-04-23

[NYPOST] The Trump administration's mass deportation raids have nabbed more than 200 known or suspected terrorists since January — including one of India's ''most wanted,'' who is accused of masterminding a grenade attack on a cop there and has ties to a US-designated terrorist organization in Pakistan.

Since President Trump's inauguration on Jan. 20, Immigration and Customs Enforcement officers have arrested 219 known or alleged terrorists, marking a 655% increase from the same period last year when 29 such arrests were made under former President Joe Biden, according to new Homeland Security data obtained by The Post.

Among the dozens of terrorists swept up in Trump's raids was Harpreet Singh, a citizen of India who entered the US illegally on Jan. 27, 2022 by crossing from Mexico into Arizona and was swiftly released into the country by Border Patrol agents with a future court date, a DHS official said.

The Biden administration is to blame for allowing Singh to roam the country for more than three years, DHS Assistant Secretary Tricia McLaughlin told The Post.

''The Biden administration not only let a wanted terrorist into our country, but after he was arrested by Border Patrol agents, they released him into the interior of our country,'' she charged.

Pro-Khalistan Outfit SFJ's Gurpatwant Singh Pannun 'Wants To Divide India, Create Many Countries': Report

2023-09-26

[OneIndia] Gurpatwant Singh Pannun, a Khalistani hard boy based in Canada, have a goal of partitioning India into multiple nations, according to a dossier from the Delhi Police Special Cell.

The dossier discloses that Pannun's primary objective, through his organization Sikh for Justice (SFJ), is to fragment India and establish a distinct Moslem state known as the 'democratic republic of Urduistan,' with the intention of separating Kashmir
Kashmir

...a disputed territory lying between India and Pakistain. After partition, the Paks grabbed half of it and call it Azad (Free) Kashmir. The remainder they refer to as "Indian Occupied Kashmir". They have fought four wars with India over it, the score currently 4-0 in New Delhi's favor. After 72 years of this nonsense, India cut the Gordian knot in 2019, removing the area's special status, breaking off Ladakh as a separate state, and allowing people from other areas to settle (or in the case of the Pandits, to resettle) there....
from India.

The report from IANS, citing the dossier, indicates that Pannun's aim is to create divisions in India along religious lines, with a focus on influencing the Moslem population to form a separate Moslem nation named 'the democratic republic of Urduistan.'

Furthermore, he is actively engaged in radicalizing the people of Kashmir, potentially aiding in their separation from India.

The police dossier reveals that Pannun is facing 16 registered cases across the country, including in Delhi, Punjab, Himachal Pradesh, Haryana, and Uttarakhand.

Pannun has offered a $2.5 million reward for anyone who raises the Khalistani flag at India Gate and a $1 million reward for any police officer who prevents the hoisting of the Indian Tricolor at the Red Fort, as witnessed on August 15, 2021.

On July 7, 2022, the Ministry of Home Affairs (MHA) officially designated him as a terrorist.

Recently, the National Investigation Agency (NIA) confiscated the Chandigarh residence and agricultural land belonging to Gurpatwant Pannun in Khankot village, Amritsar, following orders from the NIA court. A property confiscation notice was posted by NIA officials outside the house owned by the banned Sikhs for Justice (SFJ) founder and designated terrorist Gurpatwant Singh Pannu in Chandigarh.

'Attack on unity, sovereignty of India', SC affirms death penalty for Red Fort attack accused

[PUBLISH.TWITTER]

'Attack on unity, sovereignty of India', SC affirms death penalty for Red Fort attack accused https://t.co/3RbRpYOXny
— Greater Kashmir (@GreaterKashmir) November 3, 2022

Lashkar-e-Taiba
...the Army of the Pure, an Ahl-e-Hadith terror organization founded by Hafiz Saeed. LeT masquerades behind the Jamaat-ud-Dawa facade within Pakistain and periodically blows things up and kills people in India. Despite the fact that it is banned, always an interesting concept in Pakistain, the organization remains an blatant tool and perhaps an arm of the ISI...
(LeT) terrorist Mohammad Arif alias Ashfaq, a Pakistain national, had filed a review petition against capital punishment for the December 2000 Red Fort attack

Arif, a Pakistain national, was held guilty of murder, criminal conspiracy, and waging war against the country. The bench concluded there is nothing on record which can be taken to be a mitigating circumstance in favour of the review petitioner.

"The suggestion that there is a possibility of retribution and rehabilitation, is not made out from and supported by any material on record," said Chief Justice Lalit, who authored the judgment on behalf of the bench.

The Chief Justice said in conclusion, it must therefore be observed that even after eschewing circumstances, which were directly attributable to the CDRs relied upon by the prosecution, the other circumstances on record do clearly spell out and prove beyond any doubt the involvement of the review petitioner in the crime in question.

Referring to judgment in Mohd Ajmal Amir Kasab case (2008 Mumbai terror attack) (2012), the bench said: "when there is challenge to the unity, integrity and illusory sovereignty of India by acts of terrorism, such acts are taken as the most aggravating circumstances. It is well accepted that the cumulative effect of the aggravating factors and the mitigating circumstances must be taken into account before the death sentence
...the barbaric practice of sentencing a murderer to be punished for as long as his/her/its victim is dead...
is awarded."

The bench noted that there were other circumstances, including a disclosure statement by the convict, which led to an encounter at Batla house and killing of Abu Shamal alias Faisal, which went against the convict.

"The disclosure statement led the police to the hideout at G-73, Batla House, New Delhi and when the police team arrived with the review petitioner, there was firing upon the police team.. After the person concerned named Abu Shamal alias Faisal died in the encounter, certain firearms and ammunition were recovered. The submission that such recovery of ammunition or the encounter of Abu Shamal could not be associated with the disclosure statement of the review petitioner is not quite correct," said the bench.

In the Red Fort attack, three people, including two Army jawans, were killed.

In August 2011, the Supreme Court

...the political football known as The Highest Court in the Land, home of penumbrae and emanations...
confirmed the death sentence of arrested LeT terrorist Mohammad Arif for carrying out the December 2000 Red Fort attack. The apex court also dismissed his review petition later in August 2011. However,
it's easy to be generous with someone else's money...
in 2016, the apex court decided to re-hear his review petition.

In November 2005, the trial court had awarded Arif a death sentence. The trial court had also fined Arif Rs 4.35 lakh for the attack that left two Rajputana Rifles jawans and a civilian dead. The Delhi High Court, in 2007, upheld the death sentence to Arif

Tensions run high after deadly farmers clash in India

2021-10-06

[AlAhram] Demonstrators torched a police vehicle in India on Monday as tensions boiled over after festivities involving protesting farmers killed at least nine people.

Among the odd demands of this yearlong protest, fronted by a group of professional agitators calling themselves the Bharatiya Kisan Union (BKU, Indian Farmers' Union) — who are employed by the factors that exploit and grow fat off the small farmers, not actual farmers themselves — is that the central security forces must unconditionally release all Maoist terrorist recruiters and jihadis and their facilitators caught in the past year. Another group showing up front and center at these events is the Khalistan secessionists, the Sikh independence movement that is a wholly owned subsidiary of Pakistan’s ISI.

The incident on Sunday in Uttar Pradesh state was the deadliest in more than a year of protests by farmers in northern India against new agricultural reforms.

Farmers said that a convoy belonging to a government minister, his son and the state's deputy chief minister ran over and killed four people at a demonstration.

The minister said later that a driver lost control of his vehicle after being pelted by demonstrators.

Angry protesters set fire to several cars and at least five more people, four of them supporters of the ruling Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP), were killed.

On Monday, the protesters kept the bodies of the four dead farmers in glass cases for display around the protest site.

Ick.

Police banned gatherings, cut off mobile internet services, sent extra forces and detained several opposition figures on their way to the scene including Priyanka Gandhi from the Congress party.

In state capital Lucknow, dozens of police detained local Congress chief Akhilesh Yadav outside his home.

Dozens of opposition supporters staged a protest in the city and set fire to at least one police vehicle, television pictures showed.

Protests organised by opposition parties also took place in New Delhi and Bangalore.

Agriculture has long been a political minefield and employs some two-thirds of India's 1.3 billion population.

Prime Minister Narendra Modi's government says the reforms will infuse much-needed energy and capital in the sector.

Farmers, many of whom have camped outside New Delhi for over a year, fear the changes will leave them at the mercy of big corporations.

Delhi police, farmers' meeting over proposed Parliament march inconclusive

2021-07-19

The “farmers” of this protest are not simple men of the earth, but the rich farming syndicalists who control and profit from them — and can afford to spend a year in hotels and restaurants while protesting. Primarily Sikhs from Punjab, they are connected to the Sikh expat community, and therefore shelter in their midst professional Khalistani Sikh activists who take their money and direction from Pakistan’s ISI, which explains why they triumphally hoisted the Sikh flag atop the Red Fort in replacement of the flag of India. In addition to demanding revocation of the new farm laws that would allow individual farmers to sell their harvest directly, instead of to the syndicate, which then rakes off profits on the markup, they want the government to release all jihadis and Maoists arrested in the past year — much to the excitement of the anti-nationalist Soros/progressive NGOs.

[OneIndia] The Delhi Police on Sunday held a discussion with the agitating farmers sitting at the Singhu border, ahead of their planned protest near Parliament during its monsoon session to demand repeal of three farm laws.

The cops asked farmer unions to reduce the number of people who would gather in front of Parliament to protest against three agri laws from July 22, but it has been declined.

"We informed police that every day 200 farmers will go to Parliament from the Singhu border during the Monsoon session. It will be a peaceful protest and protesters will have identification badges also," Rashtriya Kisan Mazdoor Mahasangh national president Shiv Kumar Kakka said.

The Monsoon session of Parliament will start on Monday and is scheduled to conclude on August 13.

Every detail about each protester will be given to police, including a demonstrator''s Aadhaar card and mobile phone number, he said.

An interesting choice.

Police have offered an alternative place for the demonstration and have asked unions to reduce the number of protesters. This request of the police has been declined by farmer leaders, Kakka said.

The Delhi Police will give its reply on Monday and the timing of the protest will also be decided, he said.

Farmers have been protesting against the central laws since November last year at Delhi border points of Singhu, Tikri and Ghazipur.

The legislations were enacted in September last year.

The Samyukta Kisan Morcha (SKM), an umbrella body of over 40 farmer unions spearheading the stir against the central laws, has planned that around 200 farmers will protests outside Parliament every day during the period of the Monsoon session.

A tractor parade in Delhi on January 26, that was to highlight the demands of the farmer unions to repeal the, had dissolved into anarchy on the streets of the national capital as thousands of protesters broke through barriers, fought with the police, overturned vehicles and hoisted a religious flag from the ramparts of the iconic Red Fort.

The SKM had earlier said at a presser that two days before the Monsoon session begins, a "chetavani patra" (warning letter) will be issued to all opposition MPs to protest the farm laws inside the House.

Farmers agitating against the three farm laws claim that the legislations will do away with the Minimum Support Price system, leaving them at the mercy of big corporations.

Over 10 rounds of talks with the government, which has been projecting the laws at major agricultural reforms, have failed to break the deadlock between the two parties.

Farmers ready to continue protest on Delhi borders till Modi govt lasts: Tikait

2021-03-11

Second gen leaders of the Farmer Protests. Have they been taking Pakistan’s thirty pieces of silver the entire time?

[OneIndia] Farmers are ready to stay put on Delhi borders to protest against three agri laws for the remaining three and half years of the Modi government''s second term and the stir cannot be "culled" any which way the Centre tries, legendary farm leader Mahendra Singh Tikait''s son Narendra Tikait says.

Narendra, who does not hold any official position in Bharatiya Kisan Union, formed by his father in 1986, and mostly focusses on the family''s farming activities but is as vocal on issues concerning farmers as his two elder brothers Naresh and Rakesh Tikait who are leading from the front in the agitation that has been continuing for more than 100 days.

Speaking to PTI at his home in Sisauli, Muzaffarnagar district, 45-year-old Narendra also said his two brothers and the entire Tikait family would leave the protest if even smallest of any wrongdoing is proved against even a single family member, as he rejected allegations by some quarters that they have built properties and made money from the agitation.

The eldest brother Naresh Tikait is BKU president, while Rakesh Tikait holds the position of national spokesperson of the organization, which under Mahendra Singh Tikait''s leadership in 1988 had laid a virtual siege to Meerut in pursuit of higher prices for sugarcane, cancellation of loans and lowering of water and electricity rates. The same year, BKU held a week-long protest in Delhi''s Boat Club to focus on the plight of farmers.

After Mahendra Singh Tikait''s death in 2011, Naresh and Tikait have been leading the main organization in various roles, though a number of faction groups have emerged in various parts of the country over the years.

Farmers agitation will continue till three farm laws are withdrawn: Rakesh Tikait

Narendra said the Centre is under any misconception that it can "cull" the farmers'' protest like it has "culled" other agitations in the past using various tactics.

"I am here in Sisauli but my eyes are there at the protest," he said, adding that he keeps visiting Ghazipur border where hundreds of farmers and BKU supporters are camping since November 2020.

Asked about allegations that the Tikait family holds land worth hundreds of crores and that BKU is involved in hooliganism in the region, he said, "There is nothing that they (the government) could find against us and therefore this (levelling allegations) is happening. If they find a single fault in any member of our family, then we will return from Delhi."

He also rejected allegations of hooliganism by BKU as incorrect.

"Why would we do it? Some even say that we are taking money for the protest. More than 200 of our farmers have sacrificed their lives during the protest. People are donating money even during the last rites of those who have died. There is no question of we taking money for protests as we are not short on any resources," he said.

Describing his family''s position as Chaudhary or head of Balyan Khap (the Balyan caste council), Tikait said this Khap leads 84 villages in the region as per traditions continuing for ages.

His eldest brother Naresh Tikait is the head of the Balyan Khap, which makes him de facto head of ''Sarv Khap'' (all caste councils).

"We have 84 villages (belonging to the Balyan Khap). By that measure, we have 3 lakh bigha of land. When our father passed away, he had passed on the responsibility of 84 villages to us. We are Chaudhary of 84 villages and all this is ours only. What are we going to do by seeking more money," he said.

Tikait also hinted at a ''Sarv Khap'' meeting in Soram in near future to further mobilise regional support if protests continued further on Delhi''s borders and the government does not agree to farmers'' demands.

Republic Day violence: Man who assaulted cop with spear among two arrested

2021-03-11

[OneIndia] Two persons, including a 21-year-old man who assaulted a policeman on duty at Red Fort with a spear on January 26, has been arrested in connection with the violence at the historic monument, police said on Wednesday.

With this, the total number of arrests made in connection with the case of violence at the Red Fort on Republic Day stands at 14, they said.

Inch by inch,
Row by row,
I’m gonna make my garden grow...

Or round up romantic Sikh Homelander Pakistani tools one by one, anyway. Carry on, O Indian Crime Branch police..

The police said that various teams of the Crime Branch Unit probing the Red Fort violence case have been conducting regular raids at different places in Delhi and Punjab. The duo, Maninderjit Singh, 23, and Khempreet Singh, 21, who were actively involved in the violence, were arrested on Tuesday.

According to police, Maninderjit Singh, a Dutch national, settled in Birmingham, UK, was arrested at the Indira Gandhi International Airport while trying to flee from India on forged travel documents and posed himself as Jarmanjit Singh. He originally belongs to a village in Gurdaspur district of Punjab.

As per his plans, he was to fly first to Nepal from Delhi and then head to the UK. A look out circular was also issued by the police against him in connection with the case and he is previously involved in two criminal cases, they said.

Another accused Khempreet Singh, a resident of northwest Delhi''s Swaroop Nagar, who police said had assaulted a policeman on duty inside the well area of the Red Fort with a spear, was absconding and willfully evading his arrest.

Deputy Commissioner of Police (Crime) Monika Bhardwaj said the presence of the accused, Maninderjit Singh, at the Red Fort was established through electronic evidence. There are video footage on record, which shows his presence alongside the unlawfully assembled unruly riotous mob at the Red Fort carrying a spear during farmers agitation on January 26.

"During an investigation, an electronic map was drawn to figure out the possible route taken by the accused to reach the Red Fort on the date of the incident, which transpired that Maninderjit alongside the mob, started moving from the Singhu Border, Sanjay Gandhi Transport Nagar, Burari, Majnu ka Tila and finally reached the Red Fort.

"Electronic evidence further corroborates the fact that he had also visited the Singhu Border protest site on different dates and took an active part in the violence at the Red Fort," the DCP said.

The officer said that during analysis of videos available on case record, Khempreet Singh, along with his associates, was seen carrying a spear in his hand and assaulting a policeman on duty inside the Red Fort (well area).

"With the help of a technical surveillance, regular raids were being conducted at the possible hideouts of Khempreet. Local informers were also deployed in the vicinity of the available whereabouts of the accused and finally on Tuesday, his location was traced to an area in west Delhi''s Khayala, where he was hiding in a house of one of his relatives. A raid was conducted and he was arrested from there," she said.

During an investigation, Khempreet Singh disclosed that on January 26, he along with his associates, joined the mob from Sanjay Gandhi Transport Nagar and finally reached the Red Fort after breaching the barricades at Burari and Chatta Rail, the DCP added.

The police said Maninderjit Singh, along with his family, is settled in Birmingham and is employed as a labourer in a construction field. In December 2019, he visited India and due to lockdown last year, he could not go back. He was produced before a court and his four days of police custody remand has been taken.

Khempreet Singh, who along with his family, resides in Swaroop Nagar. He will be produced before a court on Wednesday. He is also a close associate of already arrested accused Maninder Singh, they added.

Farmers announce series of events to further escalate protest

2021-02-22

[OneIndia] Protesting farmers on Sunday announced a series of events from February 23-27 to further intensify their agitation against the three new agricultural laws as they accused the government of adopting "repressive" measures against them.

They also said they will soon devise a strategy to keep the protest going for long.

The Samyukt Kisan Morcha (SKM), which is spearheading the protests, told a presser here that under their proposed escalation programme, February 23 will be observed as 'Pagadi Sambhal Diwas' and February 24 as 'Daman Virodhi Diwas', essentially to underline that farmers must be respected and no "repressive measures" should be taken against them.

The Morcha said February 26 will be observed as 'Yuva Kisan Diwas' (youth farmers day) and February 27 as 'Mazdoor Kisan Ekta Divws' (farmer-labourer unity day).

"The government is adopting all the repressive measures, mischief and manipulations including arrests, detentions and registration of cases against the protesters. The Singhu border has been fortified and appears to be an international border," farmer leader Yogendra Yadav said.

A long-term plan for movement will be discussed in view of the Parliament session from March 8, and the strategy will be shared in the next meeting of SKM, he said.

Another Morcha leader, Darshan Pal, also alleged "repression" by the government.

He said around 32 people have got bail out of 122 arrested by the Delhi Police in connection with the violence and vandalism in the national capital during a farmers' tractor rally on Republic Day.
