NEW DELHI: Hate-monger Khalistani terrorist Gurpatwant Singh Pannun on Monday issued an ominous warning that an Air India plane could be attacked ahead of the 40th anniversary of the 1984 anti-Sikh riots.
“An attack could occur on an Air India flight” between November 1-19, said the terrorist, a US citizen, who has been on India’s “most-wanted” list, but has been carrying on with his hate-filled propaganda against Indians by taking cover under the “freedom of speech” he enjoys in his adopted country.
“Do not fly Air India…We are imploring Sikh ‘panth’ to refrain from travelling via Air India. From November 1, there will be a global blockade. Air India won’t be permitted to operate. Sikh ‘panth’, abstain from travelling by Air India after November 1,” said Pannun, who holds dual citizenship of US and Canada.
Pannun had made a similar threat last year. His threats are a grm reminder of the 1985 Air India bombing, which killed over 300 people. Talwinder Singh Parmar, the mastermind, was “protected” by the Canadian government led by Pierre Trudeau, father of serving PM Justin Trudeau.
The latest provocation comes just as the FBI has accused Vikash Yadav, an ex-R&AW officer, of scripting a plot to get Panun eliminated.
