Weighing in on the threats that he has been getting, Singh, as quoted by ANI, said, “I have been staying in the UK for 26 years. In the last 1.5 years, the Khalistani movement has been active in the UK. I posted a video on this and it went viral. For over nine months, I have been getting threats and there have been attacks on me as well. They wanted me to take down this video and apologise to them, but I refused. Since I was staying in London, I thought I was safe, but I was wrong. They tortured me mentally, sent online threats and on 25th February 2023, they attacked me.”

He further alleged that despite having lodged a complaint, police have not taken any action yet.

“The people who came to attack me were Sikhs. They are defaming Sikhs, Hindus and India. I want this fight to end. No actions were taken by the police officials. They only recorded my complaint. Police are not arresting them, the Khalistanis are roaming free. Khalistanis have support from the Police. Khalistanis are their political assets here. If a countryman is attacked, the accused should be arrested. But in my case, these Khalistanis were not arrested,” Kapoor told the news agency.
