In exclusive interview with ThePrint, Indian national Nikhil Gupta says he doesn’t know former R&AW officer Vikash Yadav & that all he needs is a ‘good lawyer to turn this around’.
'Individual' referred to is most likely Vikash Yadav, former R&AW officer whose involvement US had alleged in its first indictment in 'foiled plot to assassinate' the Sikh separatist.
