A terrorist of the banned organisation Khalistan Commando Force has been arrested from Punjab. The wanted terrorist, Mangat Singh, was on the run since 1995. Singh, carrying a reward of Rs 25,000 on his arrest, was arrested by a joint team of Uttar Pradesh Anti-Terrorist Squad (ATS) and Sahibabad police station officials. 

Singh had been charged with an attempt to murder and booked under sections of the Terrorist and Disruptive Activities (Prevention) Act and the Arms Act. An FIR in the case was registered against him in 1993.

He was arrested back then but got bail in 1995. He had been on the run since then, a police officer said. Singh was also wanted in a separate case of robbery and extortion.
