Satinder Pal Singh Raju, a Sikh separatist leader and member of the Sikhs for Justice organization, survived a drive-by shooting on August 11 while traveling on Interstate 505 in California. The FBI is investigating the incident, which is suspected to be linked to transnational repression possibly orchestrated by the Indian government, given Raju's close ties to Hardeep Singh Nijjar, who was assassinated in Canada last year. Raju recounted that a white car opened fire on their truck, forcing them to escape into a nearby field for safety. The California Highway Patrol confirmed the shooting but has not made any arrests or identified suspects. Multiple sources have noted that this attack reflects a broader pattern of violence against Sikh activists globally, purportedly connected to India's crackdown on the Khalistan movement. Raju remains resolute in his activism, claiming that such attacks only strengthen his resolve to advocate for Sikh rights.
