India recalled High Commissioner Sanjay Verma and some other diplomats from Canada on October 14. This came after Canada named Verma and some other diplomats as ‘persons of interest’ in the investigation into the killing of Khalistani terrorist Hardeep Singh Nijjar.
Khalistani terrorist Gurpatwant Singh Pannun appeared on Canadian broadcaster CBC News and revealed that he had been communicating with the Canadian Prime Minister’s Office for the last 2-3 years. Pannun’s organization Sikhs for Justice has been banned in India for promoting Khalistani terrorist activities. She said Trudeau’s statement reflects Canada’s unwavering commitment to justice, the rule of law and national security. Pannun alleged that his organization told the Canadian PMO how Indian High Commissioner Sanjay Verma and other officials created the spying network. Then provided logistics and intelligence support to the Indian agents who assassinated Hardeep Singh Nijjar.
India recalled High Commissioner Sanjay Verma and some other diplomats from Canada on October 14. This came after Canada named Verma and some other diplomats as ‘persons of interest’ in the investigation into the killing of Khalistani terrorist Hardeep Singh Nijjar. India also expelled six Canadian diplomats from the country. Pannun’s confession is similar to allegations made by the Royal Canadian Mounted Police, which claimed to have identified “links connecting agents of the Government of India to murders and violent acts in Canada”.
According to the RCMP, these violent acts target the South Asian community. Particularly targeting pro-Khalistan elements in Canada. However, neither the RCMP nor Justin Trudeau have been able to present any concrete evidence to support their allegations.
