American national Matthew VanDyke has alleged that his arrest in India alongside six Ukrainian nationals was connected to Russia’s ongoing war against Ukraine. VanDyke, who was released from Tihar Jail in September, accused of providing weapons and drone-warfare training to ethnic armed groups in Myanmar, has also promised to disclose what he described as “shocking details” about the case over the coming months. His remarks come weeks after he returned to India to attend a court hearing and was subsequently permitted to travel back to the United States. The allegations linking his arrest to a Russian plot remain unsubstantiated in the available account.
