During the state-wide operation, nine weapons, including one .315 bore rifle, seven rifles of 12 bore, one revolver and 373 live cartridges of different caliber have been recovered so far, the police said.An alleged advisor and financer of the "fugitive" has been arrested, news agency ANI reported quoting sources. In an exclusive interview with ANI, the Jalandhar Commissioner said, "Waris Punjab De' chief Amritpal Singh has been declared a fugitive. His two cars were seized and gunmen nabbed. We also checked if the firearms of his security escorts had been procured legally. A case has been registered. Punjab Police have launched a manhunt for Amritpal Singh and we are hopeful that he will be arrested soon. A total of 78 people have been arrested so far and further searches and raids are underway"."The law and order situation is normal in Jalandhar and the state. The police are committed to the safety of the public. We will take strict action against those who take law and order into their hands. Those found spreading rumours will be dealt with strictly," the SSP added.The elusive preacher himself on Saturday gave the police a slip and escaped their dragnet when his cavalcade was intercepted in Jalandhar district. The authorities have stepped up security at several places. Four members of an outfit headed by Amritpal Singh have been brought to Assam's Dibrugarh on Sunday, police said. They were flown in a special flight, they said. "The four are currently kept in Dibrugarh central jail," a police officer said, without elaborating further.
