Amritpal Singh, the leader of the pro-Khalistan group Waris Punjab De, has been the centre of a nationwide uproar, particularly in Punjab, for the past three days.

News outlets have claimed that the police have apprehended Amritpal. But, the Punjab Police, which declared Amritpal Singh a fugitive, still stand by its statement that Amritpal is currently absconding.

At the same time, Amritpal's uncle and driver have surrendered to the police on Saturday night i.e. March 19, but the search for Amritpal continues and the Punjab Police is moving fast to trace the Khalistan supporter.

Amritpal's driver, Harpreet Singh, and his uncle, Harjeet Singh, have surrendered to the police in Mehatpur.

The police have also taken custody of Amritpal's Mercedes car that was used by the duo.
