US aggressively probing attack on Indian consulate in San Francisco: FBI

Live Mint  

During a high-level meeting in New Delhi, Federal Bureau of Investigation director Christopher Wray told National Investigation Agency director general Dinkar Gupta that the US federal probe agency is “aggressively” investigating the attacks on the Indian Consulate in San Francisco on March 19 and July 2 this year. Wray also informed the NIA that the FBI was aggressively investigating the attack on the Indian Consulate in San Francisco,” the spokesperson added. The visit comes against the backdrop of activities of pro-Khalistan elements operating from the US and Canada and an indictment filed by US prosecutors in a federal court in Manhattan last month, which alleged an Indian government employee who described himself as a “senior field officer” responsible for intelligence, ordered the assassination of Sikhs for Justice leader Gurpatwant Singh Pannun. At Tuesday’s meeting, the NIA spokesperson said Gupta also “highlighted the active nexus between the terrorist outfits and terrorist elements with members of organised criminal syndicates, which was spreading to the US as well”.
