Washington, DC [US], June 27 (HBTV): The US will look forward to the results of the investigation being conducted by India into the alleged plot to kill India-designated terrorist Gurpatwant Singh Pannun, US State Department spokesperson Matthew Miller said on Wednesday (local time).   

While addressing a press briefing, Miller noted that they have raised the issue with the Indian government and told them that the US expects full investigation into the matter. 

Miller was asked about the US State Department's response after the members of the Senate Foreign Relations Committee wrote a letter to US Secretary of State Antony Blinken calling for a strong diplomatic response on the Indian government's involvement in the assassination attempt on Pannun.   

Miller responded: ‘So, we will respond to those members privately, as we always do. I won't speak to that here. But as pertains to the other issue, when this issue first arose, we made clear that we had raised it with the Government of India and told them that we expected there to be a full investigation. They have announced that they are conducting an inquiry, and we will look forward to the results of that inquiry.’ 

Indian national Nikhil Gupta is accused of being involved in the alleged plot to kill pro-Khalistani terrorist Gurpatwant Singh Pannun. Earlier this month, he was extradited from the Czech Republic to the US to stand trial, NBC News reported.
