Indian Punjab Police on Wednesday arrested another YouTuber, Jasbir Singh, who runs the channel “Jaan Mahal” with over 1.1 million subscribers, officials said.
Singh, a resident of Mahlan village in Rupnagar district, was taken into custody by the State Special Operations Cell (SSOC), Mohali, based on actionable intelligence.
Jasbir Singh is the second digital content creator to be arrested in recent weeks, after Haryana-based Jyoti Malhotra, with whom he was also in regular contact. He has been sent to 3-day police custody by a Mohali court.
Officials said Singh attended the Pakistan National Day celebration at the Pakistani Embassy in Delhi, where he interacted with other vloggers. He has travelled to Pakistan three times — in 2020, 2021, and 2024.
At the Pakistan National Day celebration, Singh also posed with Jyoti Malhotra and shared pictures of the event on his Instagram page.
