Pargat Singh is an associate of another KLF extremist Bakshish Singh, who was arrested in the state recently, a police official said. He said interrogation of Pargat was on.

Pargat was staying as paying guest Pushpinder Singh in a house in Patiala, about 70 km from Chandigarh. A police official did not rule out the possibility of Pargat trying to re-group terror elements in the state to revive terrorism.

Punjab faced a bloody phase of terrorism between 1981 to 1995, leaving nearly 25,000 people dead.
