Tarn Taran MLA Harmeet Singh Sandhu shared the information during proceedings on the second day of the Assembly’s Budget Session. His statement raised questions about the reported arrest and whether the operation had been officially confirmed.
However, Tarn Taran police have reportedly denied having information about the alleged arrest, leaving the claim unverified.
The conflicting accounts have created uncertainty over the development. While Sandhu claimed to have information about Bath’s arrest in Canada, the local police response indicates that they could not confirm the report at the time of the statement.
The available information does not identify the Canadian agency that may have carried out the alleged arrest, provide a date or location for the operation, or explain the specific charges involved. It also does not include confirmation from Canadian law enforcement or Indian central authorities.
The reported development comes amid continued attention on gang-related activities involving individuals linked to Punjab and alleged operations abroad. However, until an official statement is issued by the relevant authorities, the claim regarding Bath’s arrest should be treated as unconfirmed.
Further clarification from the Punjab Police, central agencies or Canadian authorities would be needed to establish whether the arrest took place and what legal proceedings, if any, may follow.
