The shooting incident has raised serious concerns about transnational repression, where foreign states, particularly India, are believed to target their critics abroad, including Sikh leaders.
Raju believes that the attack on his vehicle, marked by bullet holes, represents not just a personal threat but a broader assault on the Khalistan movement and Sikh leadership.
Experts suggest that the timing and nature of the attack point towards a calculated effort to intimidate Sikh activists in the United States, amidst growing tensions over transnational repression.
The FBI's silence on whether it is investigating the shooting has added to the fears among Sikh communities, who worry about being targeted for their beliefs.
