ALBAWABA- In a significant development, Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau has made allegations of Indian government involvement in the assassination of Canadian citizen and prominent Sikh leader, Hardeep Singh Nijjar.
The Canadian government has been actively investigating these allegations, with Trudeau stating they will take all necessary steps to hold the perpetrators accountable, as reported by CNN.
Nijjar was fatally shot in his truck in June by two masked gunmen outside a Sikh temple in Surrey, BC. The Sikh community in Canada, numbering in the hundreds of thousands, has been deeply affected by his death.
India had designated Nijjar as a terrorist threat several years ago, citing his involvement in a Sikh separatist movement.
Trudeau voiced Canada's concerns to Indian officials and directly to Prime Minister Modi during the G20 summit, emphasizing that foreign government involvement in a Canadian citizen's killing on Canadian soil is an unacceptable violation of sovereignty.
Canadian police are currently investigating three possible suspects and have issued a description of a potential getaway vehicle.
This news report highlights the serious allegations and ongoing investigation surrounding the assassination of Hardeep Singh Nijjar, a Canadian Sikh leader, and its potential links to the Indian government, as claimed by the Canadian Prime Minister.
