Vikram Yadav, a officer in the Research and Analysis Wing, had hired a hit team and plotted an attack on Khalistani terrorist Gurpatwant Singh Pannun on American soil, a report by the Washington Post has claimed.

In November 2022, a report in the Financial Times stated that the US had foiled a plot to kill Pannun. The report also claimed that the US issued a "warning" to the Indian government over concerns that New Delhi was "involved in the plot" to eliminate Pannun.

Following this, an indictment was filed in a Manhattan court claiming a man named Nikhil Gupta colluded with the Indian government official in the plan to murder Pannun, who holds dual citizenship of the US and Canada.
