Big update on the conspiracy to kill pro-Khalistan terrorist Pannu, the accused appeared before the trial judge; now the hearing will be held on this day.
Indian citizen Nikhil Gupta appeared before the trial judge for the first time in the US on charges of giving a contract in the alleged conspiracy to kill terrorist Pannu.
Senior Judge Victor Marrero has fixed the next date as September 13 after the hearing on Friday.
The court ordered the prosecution to share the evidence it has with the defense. Further hearing proceedings will be scheduled in September.
Nikhil was arrested in the Czech Republic in June last year and brought to New York on June 14.
On June 17, he was produced in the court of Magistrate Judge James Catt, who ordered him to be kept in custody.
Assistant District Attorney Camille Latoya Fletcher on Friday told the trial judge about the government’s case against Gupta.
He reiterated the allegations and said that Gupta had conspired with an Indian government employee against an American citizen of Indian origin.
However, he did not reveal the identity of both. He was referring to Gurpatwant Singh Pannu. He has American and Canadian citizenship.
He lives in New York and leads the Sikh for Justice group. The Indian government has declared Pannu a terrorist. Fletcher said that Gupta talked to a hitman.
He was told to pay $100,000 for the murder and an advance of $15,000 was also given. Fletcher said that the person he thought was the hitman was an undercover agent.
Fletcher further said that the government’s evidence includes the phone seized from Gupta, in which his conversation with the Indian government employee is recorded.
Along with electronic devices, there is also material from the FBI and the Drug Enforcement Agency. Apart from this, there are also videos and audio of Gupta’s conversation with the hitman.
At the same time, lawyer Jeffrey Chabrove requested protection for Nikhil Gupta, but he did not ask for bail. The judge said that the defense would be given enough time to prepare the case.
During the hearing, the courtroom was full of Sikhs. At the same time, a group of Khalistanis were protesting on the other side of the road in front of the courthouse.
