Chandigarh, The Punjab Police on Tuesday said it has arrested two brothers for allegedly involvement in the desecration of Guru Granth Sahib and revealed they were getting instructions from people in Australia.

Additional Director General of Police I.P.S. Sahota told media that two brothers, Jaswinder Singh and Rupinder Singh, were arrested for the main case of sacrilege of the Sikh holy book at Bargari village in Faridkot district.

He said that phone calls of the brothers had been traced to people in Australia.
