Shortly after, the journalist was subject to online abuse and harassment. PM Modi recently returned from his three-day-long maiden State visit to the United States, after which he also made an official visit to Egypt. John Kirby, the US National Security Council’s lead for strategic communication, said that the White House was aware of the reports of harassment directed at Siddique and made a statement strongly condemning the attacks at a White House press briefing on Monday, June 26.
