NIA Raids 31 Locations Across India's North Over UK Mission Attack

In March, supporters of the Khalistani movement, a secessionist group seeking a separate Sikh homeland from India’s Punjab, vandalized the Indian High Commission in London.
India's National Investigation Agency (NIA) on Tuesday raided 31 locations across two states –
Punjab and Haryana, in a
crackdown against those involved in the attack on the
Indian High Commission in London in March.
Searches were also conducted on the two premises of the UK-based NGO Khalsa Aid and at the residence of Paramjit Singh Pamma, a Khalistan Terrorist Force (KTF) militant.
During the raid, the investigative agency allegedly seized digital data of the accused and other incriminating documents and evidence.
On March 19, the High Commission of India in London was attacked by a gang of around 50 people during a pro-Khalistan protest who committed numerous offences, among them criminal trespass, injuring officials, desecrating the Indian flag, and damaging public property.
In May, an NIA team visited India’s Embassy in the United Kingdom (UK). Subsequently,
crowdsourcing of information was carried out to identify UK-based entities and individuals involved in the incident.
“The NIA has been carrying out extensive investigations into the incident with a view to ensuring there is no repeat of such breach of security, disrespect to the
Indian national flag or any threat to Indian interests abroad,” an NIA spokesperson told reporters while briefing about raids.
