NEW DELHI: A Delhi court has issued a non-bailable warrant (NBW) against Vikash Yadav, a former R&AW officer who was named by the US as a conspirator in an alleged plot to kill pro-Khalistan terrorist Gurpatwant Singh Pannun, in a case of alleged abduction and extortion involving a city-based businessman.
Additional sessions judge Saurabh Partap Singh Laler, in an order dated Aug 25, directed NBW to be issued against Yadav after he failed to appear before the court despite repeated summons in the alleged kidnapping and extortion case based on a complaint lodged by the businessman.
The court also issued a "notice to his surety" under Bharatiya Nagarik Suraksha Sanhita section 491 (procedure when bond has been forfeited), and posted the matter for further proceedings on Oct 17.
Yadav was arrested by the special cell of Delhi Police in Dec 2023, weeks after he was accused by the US of being involved in the failed assassination plot targeting Pannun.
A chargesheet in the abduction-extortion case was filed in March 2024, and Yadav was granted bail in April 2024.
On March 24 this year, a court had granted Yadav an exemption from personal appearance on his plea citing threat to his life after his personal details were made public.
