New Delhi: Kirandeep Kaur, the wife of pro-Khalistan leader Amritpal Singh, was on Thursday stopped from flying to the United Kingdom although it has been reported that immigration officers only stopped her for questioning, considering her husband’s background.
A UK-based NRI, 29-year-old Kirandeep has reportedly been on the Punjab Police radar as her name has allegedly figured in garnering funds from foreign shores for Amritpal’s activities and organisation ‘Waris Punjab De’.
In an interview with The Week recently, Kirandeep claimed she did not know about Amritpal Singh’s whereabouts. She, however, defended him and his activities, claiming that it was “illegal” the way the police were trying to detain the fugitive. She also added that she would not leave him at any cost. She said there is no contact with him and she wanted him back home safely.
