With the search for pro-Khalistan preacher Amritpal Singh continuing, his uncle was taken to the central jail in Dibrugarh, Assam on 21 March 2023.
Amritpal's uncle and driver had surrendered on the night of 19 March, a day after the crackdown on Waris Punjab De began. Earlier, 4 top associates of Amritpal were taken to the Dibrugarh jail.
They have been charged under the National Security Act (NSA), which allows detention of suspects in any prison in the country.
