Indian-American Ashley J Tellis Arrested Over Defense Info

Arrest of Ashley J Tellis: Defense Info Case

Ashley J Tellis, a senior fellow at Carnegie Endowment and key figure in India-US policy, has been arrested in Virginia for allegedly unlawfully retaining national defence information.

Ashley J Tellis, a prominent Indian-American strategic affairs expert, has been arrested on charges of unlawfully retaining national defence information.
A respected voice in Washington's foreign policy establishment, Tellis is currently a senior fellow at the Carnegie Endowment for International Peace, specialising in international security, defence, and Asian strategic issues.
"Tellis, 64, of Vienna, VA, was arrested over the weekend in Vienna, Virginia, and charged by criminal complaint with the unlawful retention of national defence information," the US Attorney&rsquo;s Office for the Eastern District of Virginia said in a statement on Tuesday.
&ldquo;The charges as alleged in this case represent a grave risk to the safety and security of our citizens,&rdquo; US Attorney Lindsey Halligan said, adding that the office remained &ldquo;fully focused on protecting the American people from all threats, foreign and domestic&rdquo;.
If convicted, Tellis faces up to 10 years in prison, a fine of up to USD 250,000, a USD 100 special assessment and forfeiture, the statement said.
&ldquo;The facts and the law in this case are clear, and we will continue following them to ensure that justice is served,&rdquo; it said.
A federal district judge will determine any sentence after considering the US Sentencing Guidelines and other statutory factors, the statement said.
Born in Mumbai and educated at the University of Chicago, Tellis has been a prolific writer and adviser on defence and Asia policy. He was closely involved in shaping the landmark India-US civil nuclear agreement during the George W Bush administration that transformed bilateral ties in the mid-2000s.

The case is being investigated as a murder-suicide, San Mateo Police said.

Indian-American couple, twin sons found dead at their home in US

The case is being investigated as a murder-suicide, San Mateo Police said.

An Indian-origin family, including their 4-year-old twin boys, has been found dead at their home in California with the police investigating the case as a murder-suicide, the second such incident in less than two months that has shocked the community in the US.
The victims, hailing from Kerala, have been identified by the friends as Anand Sujith Henry, his wife Alice Priyanka, and their 4-year-old twin boys, NBC Bay Area reported. However police have not released the victims' identities.
On Monday, Police said a 911 call spurred a welfare check at the San Mateo home after someone reported they hadn't heard from the residents for some time. They arrived and checked the exits of the home and found no signs of forced entry.
"Unfortunately, we located four deceased people inside the home. One adult male, one adult female and two children," said Jerami Surratt, public information officer with the San Mateo Police Department.
The case is being investigated as a murder-suicide, police said on Tuesday.
According to court records, the husband filed for divorce in December 2016 but apparently did not go through with it.
Sources with direct knowledge of the investigation said police believe the boys were smothered, strangled, or given a lethal overdose because there was no sign of trauma on their bodies.
The man and woman were found inside a bathroom, according to police. They both had gunshot wounds. A 9-millimeter pistol and a loaded magazine were found in the bathroom.
The deaths appear to be an isolated incident, and there is no danger to the public, police said.
"We are confident the person responsible was located within the home," police said in a statement.
"This is not a normal call for anyone. It's tragic for the family, the community, the officers..," said Surratt.
At the State of the City address on Monday night, San Mateo Mayor Lisa Diaz Nash held a moment of silence for the four people found dead in the home.

An Indian-American doctor has pleaded guilty to taking millions of dollars in bribes for performing spinal surgeries at a now-defunct medical facility in USA's California.
Lokesh Tantuwaya, a neurosurgeon, reportedly admitted to taking around $3.3 million in bribes from Michael Drobot, the owner of the Pacific Hospital in Long Beach.
Drobot allegedly paid bribes to doctors, chiropractors, and marketers for referral of thousands of patients to Pacific Hospital for surgeries and other medical services. The hospital was paid for the medical procedures through the California workers’ compensation system.
Tantuwaya said that he knew the receipt of money was illegal, and that he owed a fiduciary duty to his patients to not take money in exchange for referring them to Pacific Hospital.
So far, 23 defendants have been convicted for participating in the kickback scheme.

Washington, PTI: Highlighting the great relationship that he has developed with Indian Americans and Prime Minister Narendra Modi, US President Donald Trump said that he would think that Indian Americans will vote for him in the November 3 presidential election.

Washington, PTI: Highlighting the great relationship that he has developed with Indian Americans and Prime Minister Narendra Modi, US President Donald Trump said that he would think that Indian Americans will vote for him in the November 3 presidential election.
"We have great support from India. We have great support from Prime Minister Modi. I would think that the Indian (American) people would be voting for Trump," the president told reporters at a White House news conference.
Trump was responding to a question on a video titled, "Four more years" released by the Trump Campaign during the Republican National Convention last month. Tweeted by Kimberly Guilfoyle, national chair of Trump Victory Finance Committee and retweeted by his son Donald Trump Jr, the video conceptualised by Al Mason, co-chair of the Trump Victory Indian American Finance Committee, has short clips from the Modi-Trump joint address in Houston last year and Ahmedabad in February this year.
"Would Kimberly, Don Jr, and Ivanka Trump, who are very popular among Indian Americans, would be campaigning on your behalf among the Indian Americans with your views on India-US relationship?" he was asked.
"I know India and I understood those young people (Kimberley, Donald J Trump Jr and Ivanka) that you mentioned. They're very good young people. And I know their relationship with India is very good and so is mine," Trump said.
The president said that he has a very good relationship with PM Modi.
"Prime Minister Modi is a friend of mine and he's doing a very good job. Nothing easy, but he's done a very good job," he said as he recollected his historic address at the 'Howdy Mody' event in Houston last September.
"We had an event in Houston, as you know. And it was a fantastic event. I was invited by Prime Minister Modi and this was a massive (event)... And it was incredible. And the prime minister could not have been more generous. We have great support from India. We have great support from Prime Minister Modi," Trump said.
The president then referred to his India visit early this year in February before the coronavirus pandemic hit the two countries.
"I also, as you know, went to India just prior to the pandemic setting in because India has been hit very hard, left really about a week before that, and we had an incredible time. What we saw the people are so incredible it's really an incredible place, an incredible country and its definitely big," he said.
"But you've got a great leader and he''s a great person," Trump said.
In recent weeks both the Democrats and Republicans have intensified their outreach to the Indian American community, in particular in the battle ground states.
