India has taken action in response to the US court's decision which dropped criminal charges against a Seattle police officer Kevin Dave who fatally struck 23-year-old Indian student Jaahnavi Kandula. The Consulate General of India in Seattle has raised the matter with the authorities to review the judgement and is tracking the progress of the probe.
The Indian Embassy in the United States on Saturday reacted strongly to recent developments in the Jaahnavi Kandula death case and said it has raised the issue with local authorities for appropriate redressal. The King County prosecutor’s office on Wednesday said the police officer can not be charged with a felony due to sufficient lack of evidence.
