The Elusive Fugitive: The Hunt for Amritpal Singh

The search for Amritpal Singh, a controversial self-styled Indian preacher wanted in many cases including attempted murder, has been ongoing for over 10 days. Reports claim he has been seen in at least four Indian cities, including the capital Delhi, since eluding arrest in Punjab state on 18 March. Nepal put him on a surveillance list this week at India's request. The manhunt has dominated headlines in India over the past fortnight as police officers swarm state borders, comb the streets and scour surveillance footage in search of the man whose radical views had stoked fears of a renewed phase of violence in Punjab.
