Hardeep Singh Nijjar: RCMP arrest alleged Indian hitmen accused of killing BC Sikh leader
The suspected hitmen accused of shooting and killing Sikh leader Hardeep Singh Nijjar last June in B.C. have been arrested in Alberta and Ontario, according to a source familiar with the matter. The RCMP took the Indian nationals into custody on Friday morning, almost a year after Nijjar was gunned down at the Guru Nanak Sikh Temple in Surrey, B.C. The suspects entered Canada on student visas but may have been working at the direction of Indian intelligence when they shot Nijjar, the source said. Last September, Prime Minister Justin Trudeau pointed the finger at the government of Prime Minister Narendra Modi, claiming investigators were “pursuing credible allegations of a potential link” to Indian agents. India denied it was responsible, and Trudeau’s accusations soured relations with Modi and set off a diplomatic feud that saw Ottawa and New Delhi expel each others’ envoys.
