The Narendra Modi Cricket Stadium, situated in the Sardar Vallabhbhai Sports Complex in Ahmedabad city in Gujarat, is hosting the fourth Test match between India and Australia.
In connection with a bulk video and voice message released by an allegedly pro-Khalistan group threatening to storm the Narendra Modi Cricket Stadium in Ahmedabad ahead of a Test match between India and Australia on March 9, Gujarat police arrested two persons from the Rewa district of Madhya Pradesh, an official said on Sunday.
In the message, people were asked to stay safe at home as a pro-Khalistan group had plans to storm the cricket stadium and install its flag.
The first day of the Test match was attended by Prime Minister Narendra Modi and his Australian counterpart Anthony Albanese.
The accused have been identified as Rahul Kumar and Narendra Kushwaha.
While talking to the media, Assistant Commissioner of Police Jitendra Yadav said that the cybercrime cell of the police had traced the origin of the message to a facility set up in Rewa for call-spoofing.
“We traced the threat video message from the facility and recovered 11 SIM boxes, around 300 SIM cards, 4-5 routers,” Yadav added.
He further stated that the threat was issued on a recorded message and the call was spoofed in such a way that it was difficult to locate them.
Further investigation into who is behind the recorded message is ongoing, Yadav said.
According to media reports, the message was purportedly released by Gurpatwant Singh Pannun, founder Sikhs For Justice (SFJ), a group banned under Indian law.
