“The accused had been working for individual designated terrorist Arshdeep Singh Dhalla to promote violent criminal activities of the KTF in India.In association with another notorious wanted accused Manpreet Singh alias Peeta, they had been involved in smuggling weapons from Pakistan and recruitment of youth to carry out acts of violence and terror in the country at the behest of the KTF.They were also part of an extortion racket for raising funds for the banned outfit.The accused used to identify extortion targets, including businessmen, and then threaten them into parting with huge amounts.In case the identified targets refused, their homes and other premises would be fired at by the accused’s India-based associates,” the official said.
