Senior superintendent of police (SSP) Snehdeep Sharma declined to share the leads gathered from Arvinder Singh with the media. Arvinder’s aide, Surjeet Singh, who was arrested on May 30, would be produced in the court on Tuesday. Director general of police (DGP) Suresh Kumar Arora had interrogated both last week during his visit to the district.

A case under Sections 10 (penalty for being member of an unlawful association) and 13 (punishment for unlawful activities) of the Unlawful Activities (Prevention) Act, 1967, and Section 121 (waging war against the country) of the Indian Penal Code (IPC) has been registered against Arvinder Singh at Rahon.
