Nikhil Gupta assaulted in US prison

The said incident, in which Gupta was punched and assaulted, took place on Monday. Gupta, who has been arrested by U.S officials for his alleged role in the assassination attempt on Khalistani terrorist, Gurpatwant Singh Pannun, , has been kept in a solitary confinement after the alleged assault, according to sources aware of the matter.

Speaking to the Daily Guardian , officials at Metropolitan Detention Center, Brooklyn ,New York City, where Gupta has been kept, denied reports of Gupta being assaulted.

Sources close to Gupta, however, told the Daily Guardian that he is not being allowed to speak to his family members after the beating and whatever miniscule information they have received was from their lawyer who too has reportedly been denied access to Gupta.
