US secret service foils Pannon’s plan to summon NSA Ajit Doval, threatening to arrest its agent | Indian News
U.S. Secret Service officials foiled the plan to provide subpoena to the NSA Ajit Doval, a Khalistan terrorist, to accompany the PM, during Narendra Modi’s visit to Washington in February. Pannun claimed he had managed to deliver the summons to Doval, but India rejected the request. Foreign Secretary Vikram Misri had earlier described the claims as “inaction and unproven”.
According to a report from the Indian era, when Pannun’s agent/server attempted to place the summons at the gate of Blair House, the U.S. Secret Service agents guarded the president’s guesthouse and threatened to arrest him, and the server left and gave up the summons along with the nearby Starbucks store.
These details are revealed in a U.S. court response to Pannun’s attorney. The court noted that abandoning the subpoena at the Starbucks store was not enough to allow the court to continue the case. The U.S. court noted: “The complaint failed to deliver the complaint to any officer or agent who provided the defendant (DOVAL) as required by the court order.
The subpoena was issued in September 2024 after Pannun filed a lawsuit alleging murders against him. U.S. authorities had earlier accused an Indian government agent named Vikash Yadav, but an investigation in New Delhi confirmed that Yadav was a former employee. Another Indian country, Nikhil Gupta, was detained in the United States for suspected involvement in the case.
Pannun is the criminal India wants, posing a security threat to the country.
