Pakistani don Shahzad Bhatti has released a video denying any involvement in the recent explosions in Punjab’s Jalandhar and Amritsar. In the video, Bhatti said he was saddened by the incidents and rejected allegations linking him to the blasts.

Reacting to the accusations, Bhatti said that “Punjab is one,” whether it belongs to India or Pakistan, and claimed that he was being blamed whenever any incident takes place in India. He added that he is also a Punjabi and therefore feels pain over the explosions.

Bhatti further accused governments of creating divisions between communities and alleged that innocent youths are being falsely implicated in criminal cases. He also claimed that Punjabi and Sikh communities are often made to suffer while others benefit politically.

The clarification comes after a series of explosions in Jalandhar and Amritsar recently triggered panic across Punjab. Following the blasts, Bhatti’s name reportedly surfaced during discussions surrounding the case, though no official confirmation regarding his involvement has been made so far.
