US and Canada Warn Sikh Activist Pannun of New Credible Death Threat
Gurpatwant Singh Pannun, a US-Canadian citizen and founder of the pro-Khalistan group Sikhs For Justice, has received warnings from the FBI and Royal Canadian Mounted Police about a new credible threat to his life. The alerts come ahead of the November sentencing of Nikhil Gupta, an Indian national who pleaded guilty to a 2023 conspiracy to assassinate Pannun. Gupta was allegedly recruited by an Indian government employee but was caught after communicating with an undercover US officer. Pannun remains undeterred by the threats.
