New Delhi: The NIA court has issued an ultimatum to Khalistan terrorist Ranjit Singh Neeta, ordering him to surrender. The special NIA court based in Mohali has granted a 30-day timeframe for his surrender. Neeta, the leader of the Sindbad Force, a Khalistan terrorist organisation, is currently believed to be residing in Pakistan.
Originally hailing from Jammu, Neeta is implicated in various terror and explosive-related cases across the Punjab-Jammu region. He is connected to significant incidents, including the bomb blast on the Jhelum Express near Ambala in December 1996 and 1997. He was also involved in orchestrating two bus bombings in Pathankot, causing the loss of lives and destruction. The NIA has implicated him in these incidents.
Neeta’s involvement extends to the Shalimar Express blast in June 1998, the Pooja Express blast near Pathankot in November 1999, and the Sealdah Express blast in February 2000. Additionally, investigations have linked him to the planning and execution of the blast at Kailash Guest House in Paharganj, Delhi, resulting in injuries to eight individuals.
His record of involvement continues with the July 2009 attack on Rashtriya Sikh Sangat chief Rulda Singh in Patiala, resulting in Singh’s unfortunate demise. Neeta was also implicated in the May 2009 attack on Sant Ramanand and Sant Niranjan Das at a Gurdwara in Vienna, Austria, leading to the death of Sant Ramanand and serious injuries to Sant Niranjan Das.
