The United States State Department is collaborating with India in its investigation into allegations that a RAW officer was involved in a plot to assassinate Sikh separatist leader Paramjit Singh Pannun on American soil last year. The claims, based on unnamed sources, were reported by The Washington Post. US State Department Principal Deputy Spokesperson Vedant Patel stated that the US expects accountability from India based on the results of its inquiry committee’s work and is regularly working with India for updates. India has rejected the allegations, asserting that a thorough investigation is ongoing and dismissing the report’s speculative and irresponsible comments.
