The record
Written from the 1 report below. Nothing here is unsourced.
Matthew Aaron VanDyke, a US citizen arrested in March for unauthorized travel to Mizoram and Myanmar, has been granted default bail by a Delhi court. He and six Ukrainian nationals were detained over allegations of providing drone training to ethnic armed groups considered hostile to India's security. The National Investigation Agency has filed a charge sheet under the Immigration and Foreigners Act but has not yet invoked the Unlawful Activities (Prevention) Act, pending further investigation. The court stipulated that VanDyke must remain in Delhi and stay available for further questioning.
What to watch next
- The court consideration of the charge sheet scheduled for October 1.
- Potential filing of a supplementary charge sheet by the NIA regarding UAPA charges.
- Future bail applications from the six Ukrainian nationals arrested in the same case.
