Victoria State initiates action against Khalistan Terrorists
Victoria State in Australia has initiated actions against Khalistani terror group. The police on Monday released images of Khalistani supporters who indulged in violence on January 29th in Melbourne.
In a statement, the Victoria Police appealed to identify six men following an affray in Melbourne.
“Melbourne East Neighbourhood Policing Team are appealing for public assistance following an affray at Federation Square in late January,” read the statement.
The targeted attack took place during the voting for the ‘Khalistan independence’ referendum, organised by the ‘Sikhs for Justice (SFJ)’ on January 29 this year.
The men from pro-Khalistani groups attacked Indians carrying the national flag in their hands.
The Indian group was seen running away from the scene while the Khalistani group continued to hit them.
Police were in attendance at a Khalistan Referendum event at Federation Square on January 29 when two fights broke out, one at about 12.45 pm and the other at about 4.30 pm.
During the fight, flag poles were used by several men as weapons which caused physical injuries to multiple victims. Two victims, one with a laceration to their head and another with a hand injury, were treated at the scene by paramedics. Several other victims sustained injuries and required medical treatment.
“Two men were arrested on the day, and police have been making a number of enquiries to identify remaining individuals. Investigators have released images of six men they believe may be able to assist with their enquires,” read the statement.
In both incidents, police quickly responded to separate incidents and dispersed the crowd. OC spray was used in the second incident to separate the fighting men.
The Victoria Police in Australia have finally woken up and acted, two months after sword-welding Khalistanis attacked the Indian community at the Federation Square in Melbourne.
During his visit to New Delhi earlier this month, Australian Prime Minister Anthony Albanese had said that his country won’t tolerate any extreme actions and attacks that took place in religious buildings, and that there is no place for such action against Hindu temples.
Prime Minister Narendra Modi and Anthony Albanese had discussed disturbances created by pro-Khalistani outfits in Australia and the Australian Prime Minister assured that his government will take all necessary measures to ensure that peace and harmony prevail.
Beginning 2023, Hindu temples in Australia have seen a spurt in vandal attacks by Khalistani elements defacing the walls with anti-India slogans and graffiti.
There has been a rise in attacks by these Khalistani elements in foreign countries off late. These come in the wake of reports that the Pakistani spy agency ISI has been urging and funding such elements to carry out such attacks in a bid to rake up the Khalistan movement in Punjab.
The Indian Intelligence agencies have been warning about a rise in the activities by the ISI backed Khalistan elements.
