The Punjab and Haryana High Court has signaled that Amritpal Singh, a radical Sikh leader and Member of Parliament from Khadoor Sahib, will remain in Dibrugarh Central Jail in Assam following the end of his National Security Act (NSA) detention on April 22, 2024. This decision comes after the Punjab government filed a plea to arrest Singh in connection with the 2023 Ajnala violence case. The court, led by Chief Justice Sheel Nagu and Justice Sanjiv Berry, suggested it would arrange for Singh's continued detention in Assam, allowing for video-conferencing for subsequent legal proceedings. Singh has been in jail since April 23, 2023, after leading an attack on a police station in Ajnala to secure the release of an aide. Despite his incarceration, he was elected as an Independent MP in the 2024 Lok Sabha elections, receiving 1.9 lakh votes. The government has expressed concerns about Singh's potential to incite violence and disrupt public order, citing recent threats linked to his activities and the involvement of his supporters in criminal acts. The plea highlights the risks associated with his presence in Punjab, referencing a grenade attack in Chandigarh and the murder of a critic in Canada linked to his followers.
