Amritpal Singh still on the run
While it was reported earlier on Saturday that Punjab Police detained self-proclaimed radical Sikh preacher Amritpal Singh and his six accomplices, later the police said that he is still on the run. Amritpal Singh escaped after a high-intensity chase while his associates were nabbed. He was going in a convoy of three vehicles. During this time, the police caught two vehicles near Mehtabpur in Shahkot, but Amritpal Singh managed to escape in the third vehicle.
The move came after the Punjab police launched a crackdown on the separatist leader and his group.
