Nabha jailbreak: One of masterminds arrested from Delhi

The Patiala Police today claimed to have nabbed one of the gangsters who played a key role in the sensational Nabha jailbreak from the Indira Gandhi International Airport, police said.
Inderjit Singh was travelling from Jordan to New Delhi with a fake passport, they said.
A Look Out Circular (LOC) notice was already issued by the Patiala Police against the accused, the police said.
Acting on an input provided by the Intelligence Wing of the Punjab Police, the Patiala Police nabbed the accused from the airport, the police said.
"The accused was one of the masterminds of the Nabha jail break case and was instrumental in providing logistical support, managing finances and providing hideouts to the gangsters involved in the Nabha Jail break case," a police official said.

Singh was allegedly involved in a number of heinous crimes, including extortion, drugs, and a number of cases were registered against him across Punjab.

The accused was also allegedly handling Facebook profiles of notorious gangsters Harjinder Singh alias Vicky Gounder and the Shera Khuban Group and was repeatedly using this platform for issuing threats or statements on behalf of the gangsters, the police said.
Singh was remanded to three-day police custody by the court in Patiala.
"The custodial interrogation of the accused is likely to throw light on the Nabha jail break case conspiracy and other heinous crimes committed in the state," a police official said.

A group of armed men stormed the Nabha jail in police uniform and managed to free six prisoners -- Harminder Singh Mintoo, Kashmir Singh, two terrorists, and gangsters Amandeep Dhothian, Vicky Gounder, Gurpreet Sekhon and Neeta Deol, from the maximum security jail at Nabha in Patiala district on November 27 last year.
