Sikh separatist leader recaptured

A top Sikh militant commander was recaptured by police in the Indian capital Delhi yesterday, a day after he was freed in a dramatic jailbreak by a gang wearing police uniforms. Harminder Singh Mintoo, who heads a Sikh separatist group, was arrested on the outskirts of Delhi some 200 kilometres from the high-security prison in Punjab where he had been remanded on terror charges.
