Glasgow gurdwara committee assured the High Commissioner that the three persons involved in the unsavory incident were not part of their regular congregation and were unknown to the community gurudwara on Albert Road in Glasgow. The committee has requested the High Commissioner to visit the Gurudwara again and a public statement is expected to be released by them tomorrow.

Two of the three extremists who tried to accost the Indian High Commissioner have been identified as Shamsher Singh and Ranveer Singh, both based in London. Out of this Ranveer Singh was photographed at a shooting practice range with a rifle and also seen wearing a T-shirt demanding the release of Babbar Khalsa International terrorist Jagtar Singh Hawara, who was involved in the conspiracy to assassinate the 12th Chief Minister of Punjab, Beant Singh, on August 31, 1995.
