Rickshaw driver Lakhveer Singh said he does not know who Amritpal Singh is "I didn't know who they were then, I had never seen them before," said the driver who frequents the villages of Udhowal and Mehatpur for a living. Singh said he could not remember the color of the clothes the two men were wearing. “It was only after the police spoke to me that I found out who they were,” he said, adding that he had asked for a fee to take them to the tire repair shop and was paid Rs 100.
Amritpal Singh had changed five vehicles in 12 hours to escape arrest on Saturday. He is still on the run. The other man on the Bajaj Platina motorcycle whose tire was punctured was identified from CCTV footage as Pappal Preet, a close associate of the Khalistan leader.
