Amritsar (Punjab): The father of a jailed Independent Member Parliament of Punjab ‘Waris Punjab De’ Chief Amritpal Singh on Thursday criticised the imposition of Unlawful Activities and Prevention Act (UAPA) on his son.
Speaking with the reporters Tarsem Singh said that the move is to stop the jailed MP’s family from launching a political party.”Now as the imposition of NSA on him comes to an end, they have already imposed UAPA. Bhagwant Mann’s anti-Sikh mindset is being exposed. Without any proof or investigation, such things are being done to defame Amritpal.”
Earlier today, Faridkot Police Superintendent confirmed that UAPA had been invoked against the jailed MP.
He also said that the UAP Act was extended on the basis of the facts after the investigation of the case of Gurpreet Hari murder. It also includes the name of Arsh Dalla (also known as Arshdeep Singh Gill) who is a designated terrorist by the government. “We cannot speak further on the action being taken, the investigation is ongoing,” SP Jasmeet Singh told the media.
Tarsem Singh also spoke about invoking the National Security Act (NSA) against his son, saying that was done due to ‘political fear.’
He also said that the people are already aware that NSA has been previously imposed on him and that was because of political fear. They know that the people of Punjab are extremely supportive of Amritpal and so they fear their seats.
Singh had also alleged on January 7 that his whole family had been placed under house arrest by Punjab police.
Notably the family of Amritpal Singh is going to launch a political party on January 14.
