For the past few days, amid the ongoing tension between India, Canada and America, the name of former Indian intelligence officer Vikas Yadav has been in the headlines.
America has accused Vikas Yadav of conspiring to murder Khalistani terrorist Gurpatwant Singh Pannu. Now his lawyer has scolded America on this matter.
Vikas Yadav’s lawyers RK Handu and Aditya Chaudhary have said that amid this diplomatic crisis, a former government employee is being made a scapegoat in international politics.
Handu has clearly denied America’s allegations and said that Vikas Yadav has no role in the conspiracy to murder Pannu.
Vikas Yadav’s lawyer emphasized that he has never been to America. Handu said, “Vikas Yadav was not involved in any criminal activity. He hasn’t done anything wrong. The allegations are baseless and part of a larger international conspiracy against India.”
His lawyers claimed that Vikas Yadav was innocent and he was being framed. He said that Vikas Yadav did not even know Nikhil Gupta, who was allegedly involved in the conspiracy with him.
It is noteworthy that America has alleged that Vikas Yadav had played a key role in plotting the murder of Pannu from India. He is accused of giving sensitive information about Pannu to Nikhil Gupta who shared it with a ‘hitman’, who was an undercover agent. Nikhil Gupta was extradited from Czech Republic to America in June this year. He was dramatically arrested last year at the behest of the US government.
Vikas Yadav’s lawyer Handu said that due to these allegations, there is turmoil in Vikas Yadav’s life. This entire episode has badly affected his personal life.
After being dismissed from service he was humiliatingly forced to vacate his government residence.
“His reputation has been hurt and his life is also in danger,” Handu said. He is under mental pressure.”
On this issue, which started from the dispute between Canada and India, America seems to be inclined towards Canada, due to which there is a situation of tension between India and America.
FBI has issued an arrest warrant for Vikas Yadav and he is currently listed as ‘absconding’.
