NEW DELHI: Sai Varshith Kandula, a 20-year-old Indian national residing in the US as a permanent resident, has admitted to attacking the White House in May 2022 using a rented truck. According to the plea agreement, Kandula’s intention was to overthrow the democratically elected government and establish a dictatorship inspired by Nazi Germany‘s ideology, with himself as the leader.
Kandula told investigators that he would have “arranged for the killing of the US president and others if necessary to achieve his objective.” At the time of his arrest, he was flying a Nazi flag.
“On May 4, 2023, Kandula attempted to contact several other companies in an attempt to rent a large commercial tractor-trailer truck, a dump truck, or another large truck. Kandula was unsuccessful in arranging for security guards or a tractor-trailer truck or dump truck. Kandula had attempted to arrange for the services of these security guards and the use of large vehicles to carry out his offence against the US Government,” the plea agreement said.
US attorney Matthew Graves stated that Kandula was prepared to arrange for the assassination of the US president and others if necessary to achieve his goal. Kandula’s actions were intended to “influence or affect the conduct of the government by intimidation or coercion,” as per the Department of Justice.
Court documents reveal that Kandula flew from St. Louis to Washington DC on a one-way ticket on May 22, 2023. After renting a truck at Dulles International Airport, he drove to Washington DC and crashed into the barriers protecting the White House and President’s Park. The crash caused damage to the barriers and the rented truck, with repair costs amounting to over $54,000.
“Kandula planned the attack for several weeks. Before renting the truck and crashing it on White House grounds, he made several attempts to gain access to vehicles or armed security guards. For example, on April 22, 2023, Kandula requested 25 armed guards and an armoured convoy from a security company located in Virginia,” the press release said.
Prior to the attack, Kandula had planned for several weeks and made attempts to gain access to vehicles and armed security guards. He unsuccessfully tried to arrange for 25 armed guards and an armoured convoy from a Virginia-based security company on April 22, 2023. On May 4, 2023, he also attempted to rent large commercial vehicles, such as a tractor-trailer truck or a dump truck, from various companies.
