Gurpatwant Pannun Murder Plot: Indian national Nikhil Gupta, accused of orchestrating a murder-for-hire plot against a Sikh extremist in the US, pleaded not guilty in a federal court. Gupta, extradited from the Czech Republic, faces charges of conspiracy to commit murder-for-hire. His next court hearing is scheduled for June 28. The US alleges Gupta was working under the direction of an unnamed Indian government official, a claim India denies, stating it is conducting its own investigation into the matter.
