Arms Suppliers in touch with Khalistani activists

The Special team had observed that Khalistani activists were allegedly in touch with illegal firearms suppliers from Madhya Pradesh and were procuring firearms from them to carry out their nefarious operations. The police found that the weapons suppliers were allegedly operating on social media platforms. They had also perceived that the radical groups of Khalistan along with some gangsters were procuring weapons from these arms suppliers through social media platforms. The inputs led the Special Cell to keep a special vigil over such anti-national activities.
   
"They were operating through a FB page and were using a virtual number to make communications. The team got a tip-off that both the accused would be coming to Rohini to deliver a consignment. A trap was laid and both were held," said DCP, Special Cell, Sanjeev Yadav. The accused informed the police that the Lawrence Bishnoi gang used to procure weapons from them.
