Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau says there is evidence of India’s role in Niger’s killing.
Canadian Prime Minister says there is strong evidence of India’s role in the killing of Khalistan terrorist Hardeep Singh Nijjar. Justin Trudeau added that India denied the evidence handed over yesterday. Six representatives were fired for not cooperating with further investigation. Justin Trudeau called for no compromise on security issues and to cooperate with the ongoing investigation. India expelled six Canadian diplomats, including the Acting High Commissioner of the Canadian Police, saying that Indian agents had links with the Bishnoi group. A few diplomatic officials were also recalled, including the High Commissioner of Canada. The action followed Trudeau’s accusation that diplomatic representatives were under suspicion in the ongoing investigation into the Niger killing.
The High Commissioner was recalled on the grounds that Canada was trying to implicate Indian diplomatic officials in the murder of Khalistan terrorist Hardeep Singh Nijjar. The Ministry of External Affairs also pointed out that the Canadian government’s allegation has jeopardized the safety of Indian diplomats. After this, six people including the Canadian Acting High Commissioner and the Deputy High Commissioner were expelled. They were instructed to leave the country by Saturday.
Earlier, Acting High Commissioner Stuart Wheeler was summoned by the Ministry of External Affairs and protested. At the same time, the Canadian police announced in an emergency press conference that they have found evidence against India.
India responded with a scathing response to the Trudeau government after Indian officials received the suspicious letter.
