AAP MLA Kulwant Sidhu Reports Death Threats as Police Probe Suspicious Car Outside Ludhiana Home

Police are scanning CCTV to identify a tinted Hyundai i20 seen near the residence, with an FIR planned after the preliminary probe.

Overview

  • Late Saturday, CCTV captured a black-tinted Hyundai i20 pausing outside Kulwant Singh Sidhu’s Model Gram home before leaving when people stepped out.
  • Commissioner of Police Swapan Sharma said the complaint has been received, investigators are reviewing footage to trace the vehicle, and a case will be registered after inquiry.
  • Sidhu says he has received repeated WhatsApp death threats from an international number for roughly two weeks, most recently on Thursday.
  • Alleging involvement by Sikhs for Justice leader Gurpatwant Singh Pannun, Sidhu attributes the threats to the banned group, a claim not confirmed by police.
  • Sidhu contends initial precautions at his residence were reduced despite ongoing calls, while another Ludhiana AAP MLA earlier received threats and was granted enhanced security including a bulletproof vehicle.
