Parliament Security Breach Amid Khalistani Terrorist’s Attack Warning

The massive security breach at parliament took place on a day that Khalistani terrorist Gurpatwant Singh Pannun had threatened an attack. Investigations are yet to reveal a link between the two.

Pannun — the US-based chief of extremist organisation Sikhs for Justice– had threatened to attack the Indian Parliament “on or before December 13” — the anniversary of the 2001 Parliament attack that left 15 people, including the five attackers, dead.

The Centre had responded saying while it does not want to give much credence to such threats, the matter has been taken up by the authorities concerned.

“We do take threats seriously,” foreign ministry spokesperson Arindam Bagchi had said when asked about the matter.

“We are caught in a bind here. I do not want to amplify or give too much credence to such extremists, who make threats and get a lot of coverage. On the other hand, we take this seriously and in this particular matter, we know we have taken up the matter with the US and Canadian authorities,” he had said.
