RAW Official Was Involved In Assassination Plot Of Pannun US Media
Pannun is one of the main leaders of the Khalistan movement and the legal advisor and spokesperson for Sikhs for Justice (SFJ), which aims to promote the idea of a separate Sikh state.
The Indian government has declared Pannun a terrorist.
In an investigative report, The Washington Post newspaper said, “That India would pursue lethal operations in North America has stunned Western security officials.”
“Yadav’s identity and affiliation, which have not previously been reported, provide the most explicit evidence to date that the assassination plan – ultimately thwarted by US authorities – was directed from within the Indian spy service,” the daily reported. “Higher-ranking (Research and Analysis Wing) RAW officials have also been implicated, according to current and former Western security officials, as part of a sprawling investigation by the CIA, FBI and other agencies that has mapped potential links to (Prime Minister Narendra Modi) Modi’s inner circle,” it said.
Jaiswal stated that there is an ongoing investigation by a high-level committee established by the Indian government to address security concerns raised by the US regarding criminal and terrorist networks.
“Speculative and irresponsible comments on it are not helpful,” he added.
