The US on Tuesday “strongly condemned” the attack and arson attempt by Khalistan supporters on the Indian Consulate in San Francisco. A local channel reported that Khalistani extremists set fire to the Indian consulate between 1:30 am and 2:30 am. However, it was quickly extinguished by the San Francisco Fire Department. The report said the attack caused limited damage and no employees were injured. Earlier in March too, Khalistanis attacked the Indian Consulate in San Francisco.

Khalistan supporters have also released a video of the attack, although it has not been confirmed. US State Department spokesperson Matthew Miller tweeted, ‘The United States strongly condemns the attempted vandalism and arson attack against the Indian Consulate in San Francisco. Sabotage or violence against diplomatic establishments or foreign diplomats is a crime in the United States.

There was also an attack in March

Khalistan supporters also attacked the Indian consulate in San Francisco earlier in March. The Indian government and Indian-Americans strongly condemned it and demanded immediate action against those responsible. Khalistanis also attempted to plant their flag on the embassy. Something similar happened at the Indian High Commission in London which was targeted by Khalistan supporters.

Issued threatening posters

Khalistan supporters in Canada released a threatening poster against India on Monday. The poster reveals that Khalistani is preparing for a rally on 8th July. He held Indian diplomats responsible for the killing of terrorist Hardeep Singh Nijjar, who was killed last month. Nijjar had links with the banned outfit SFJ and was also linked to Pakistan’s intelligence agency ISI.
