The indictment describes Yadav as a “citizen and resident of India.” He has also been called Vikas and Amanat.

It says he was part of the Indian government’s cabinet secretariat, within which the Research and Analysis Wing (RAW), the country’s main intelligence agency, operates. RAW falls under the authority of the Prime Minister’s Office (PMO).

The indictment further states that Yadav had described his position as that of a “senior field officer” with responsibilities in “security management” and “intelligence.”

He adds that he also served in India’s Central Reserve Paramilitary Police Force (CRPF) and received training in “combat gear and weapons”.

The US State Department said it was pleased with India’s cooperation in the investigation into the alleged assassination plot.

Meanwhile, relations between India and Canada continue to deteriorate, with Delhi and Ottawa firing a barrage of accusations at each other.

Mr. Jaiswal said Thursday that India had repeatedly asked Canada to extradite individuals suspected of being part of the group of imprisoned Indian gangster Lawrence Bishnoi, but had received no response.

Canadian police said Indian government agents used members of Bishnoi’s gang to carry out “homicides, extortion and violence” and target supporters of the pro-Khalistan movement. India has denied the allegations, saying Canada has not provided any evidence about them.

India’s accusations came in response to Mr Trudeau’s claims that India had made a “massive mistake” if it was behind the death of a Sikh separatist leader on Canadian soil.
