NIA shares photos of wanted accused involved in attack on Indian consulate in USA

The National Investigation Agency (NIA) has released the pictures of 10 wanted accused in the March 2023 case of attack and vandalism at the Indian Consulate in San Francisco, USA, and has sought information about them from the general public, the agency said in a statement.

The agency has issued three separate “Request for Identification & Information” notices against the wanted accused, "seeking any information of importance that could lead to their arrest or apprehension".

While two of the notices carry photographs of two accused each, the third notice shows pictures of the other six accused allegedly involved in the case, read the agency statement.

The NIA has also released telephone numbers and email IDs for sharing of any information on these 10 accused and promised not to reveal the identity of anyone sharing information on the accused, it said.

The attack on the Indian Consulate in San Francisco had taken place in the intervening night of March 18 and 19, 2023 when some pro-khaliatani entities trespassed into the consulate and tried to burn down the Consulate, the NIA statement added.
