Khalistani militant outfit chief arrested in Delhi

Khalistani Liberation Force (KLF) Chief Harminder Singh Mintoo was today nabbed from Delhi railway station, a day after he escaped with five other inmates from Nabha jail in Patiala.
"Mintoo has been arrested from Delhi railway station by Delhi police," said a senior official of Punjab police in Chandigarh.
He said Delhi police nabbed the dreaded terrorist on the basis of inputs passed on by Punjab police.
"We passed on the information about Mintoo following which Delhi police arrested him," official said.
He said a team of Punjab police will go to Delhi to bring him back.
It is the second arrest in the case. UP police last evening arrested the alleged "mastermind" of the daring daylight jailbreak, Parminder Singh.

Mintoo yesterday escaped along with five other prisoners

in a sensational jailbreak after armed men in police uniform tricked the sentries into opening the gates and bolted out with the inmates while firing a hail of bullets.
Officials said efforts are on to nab the other prisoners who managed to flee.
'Mintoo' was arrested by Punjab Police after he was deported from Thailand in November 2014. He was wanted in ten terror cases.
The KLF chief was brought to India along with his key aide Gurpeet Singh 'Gopi' after Punjab Police, in coordination with central agencies, traced them in Thailand, a senior police official said.

Among the escapees was another terrorist Kashmira Singh, according to Punjab police chief Suresh Arora.
