Khalistani terrorists have earlier bombed an Air India flight, the incident which is now known as Kanishka bombing, which killed scores of passengers.
Khalistani terrorists, who have earlier carried out a bomb blast on an Air India flight while it was mid-air decades ago, have issued threats to flights from India to destinations like the US, Canada, UK, Germany and Australia among others.
Terror group Sikhs for Justice chief Gurpatwant Singh Pannun in a new video issued threats to flights flying in certain routes. He said the flights from India to Canada, namely AI 187 and AI 189 which fly from New Delhi to Toronto, should be ‘boycotted’.
He issued similar threats to flights AI 185 (New Delhi to Vancouver), AI 111 and AI 161 (New Delhi to London), AI 129 and AI 131 (Mumbai to London), AI 302 (New Delhi to Sydney), AI 308 (New Delhi to Melbourne), AI 121 (New Delhi to Frankfurt).
In his video, Pannun also urged Sikh to ‘kill India economically’ and urged the Sikh Panth to salute Beant Singh, one of the assassins of former Indian prime minister Indira Gandhi, on October 31.
Pannun urged Khalistanis to target Air India, Made In India initiatives and then ‘balkanize’ India.
Top intelligence sources speaking to CNN-News18 said the biggest irony is that the US, UK and Canada are “watching these threats openly emanating from their land by a wanted terrorist”.
“These boycott threats are not limited to the boycott of Air India but he is trying to provoke some radical elements to take law in their hands and attack Air India,” they said.
“A terrorist is openly threatening an economy, a country and the Prime Minister but host countries are watching him. He is a wanted accused for India and charges are waging war against the country. His only idea is to revive anti-Indian sentiments in Sikh youth born after 1984,” he further added.
