The petitioner is currently detained in Prague and is facing extradition to the US. The recent leaks of confidential information regarding the petitioner’s case in New York, US, and the irresponsible reporting on the same has put an imminent threat to the life and well-being of the petitioner in the Czech Republic and to his family in Delhi, India.”

In November, the US Justice Department disclosed the name of Nikhil Gupta as he was charged for his “participation in a foiled plot to assassinate a US citizen of Indian origin in New York”.

Who is Nikhil Gupta?

The US document identified Nikhil Gupta as the man who was in touch with an Indian government employee on the assassination plot. The document said Gupta was involved in international narcotics and weapons trafficking. Gupta hired a hitman for the job, but the hitman was an undercover cop, the document claimed. And thus, the assassination plot was foiled. Nikhil Gupta operated from India and as he arrived in the Czech, he was arrested, the document said.
