Last seen hiding under umbrella, Amritpal Singh may have fled to Uttarakhand | Top points

Baljit Kaur reportedly told police that Amritpal Singh made some calls when he was at her place and the indications were that from Haryana they were planning to go towards Uttarakhand.

While Waris Punjab De chief Amritpal Singh manages to evade arrest, CCTV footages drop hints of his continuous movement as the latest purportedly showed him walking in a residential area in Haryana hiding under an umbrella. This footage found on Thursday is from Monday. Earlier, Amritpal Singh was seen fleeing in a motorbike and then on a motorised three-wheeler in Punjab. The latest proves that the Khalistan sympathiser crossed the state border on Monday only. Several of his aides have been arrested and the cops are piecing together the events that unfolded since Saturday.
