Sue mastermind of Pannun plot, says top panel
The New Indian Express Bengaluru
|January 16, 2025
A high-powered committee set up by the government in the wake of a botched operation to bump off Khalistani radical Gurupatwant Singh Pannun on US soil, recommended legal action against 'an individual' who masterminded the plot.
While the report did not name the individual, the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) identified him as Vikash Yadav.
In its lookout notice, the FBI said Yadav was wanted in a "murder-for-hire case; conspiracy to commit murder-for-hire; and money laundering". The US District Court, Southern District of New York, issued an arrest warrant against him on October 10, 2024.
The home ministry said in a statement that the panel was formed in 2023 to probe the individual's links with the drug mafia and criminal gangs after allegations that a plot was hatched to disturb American security interest in 2023.
