Washington: The United States is “satisfied” with the accountability it has demanded from India in connection with the alleged involvement of Indian officials in the foiled assassination plot of Khalistani terrorist Gurpatwant Singh Pannun on American soil, said US Ambassador to India Eric Garcetti. Notably, the Pannun case has once again hit the headlines after a report by the Washington Post named an Indian intelligence official allegedly involved in the murder plot.
“When I was referring to a relationship that might have bumps along the road, this would be potentially the first big fight in a relationship,” Garcetti said in response to a question at an event organised on Thursday by the Council on Foreign Relations (CFR), a top American think-tank. “And so far, knock on wood, I would say the administration is satisfied with the accountability that we’ve demanded on this, because this is a red line for America, for our citizens.”
