Canadian police arrest fourth Indian man for murder of Sikh leader Nijjar
2024-05-13
[GEO.TV] A fourth person has been arrested and charged with the murder of Sikh separatist leader Hardeep Singh Nijjar
…erstwhile head of the Khalistan Tiger Force (KTF) in Canada, one of several Sikh groups who seek to carve out an independent homeland for the Sikhs in Indian Punjab, because they respect the borders of their Pakistani trainers and paymasters too much to aim for doing the same in their actual historic homeland in the Pakistani Punjab. While they wait, they amuse themselves with criminality and terrorism, according to the Indian authorities, who had long been trying to persuade Canada to extradite Mr. Nijjar. He acquired Canadian citizenship despite arriving there under false pretenses and a false identity. India claims he died last summer of Sikh inter-gang activities ....
last year, Canadian police said on Saturday, in a case that strained diplomatic relations with India.

Canadian police earlier this month arrested and charged three Indian men in the city of Edmonton in Alberta and said they were probing whether the men had ties to the Indian government.

The Integrated Homicide Investigation Team (IHIT) announced Saturday that Amandeep Singh, 22, has been charged with first-degree murder and conspiracy to commit murder in Nijjar's killing.

Singh, an Indian national who resided in Brampton, Surrey and Abbotsford, was already in jug for unrelated firearms charges out of Peel, Ontario, IHIT said.

Nijjar, 45, was rubbed out in June outside a Sikh temple in Surrey, a Vancouver suburb with a large Sikh population. A few months later, Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau
...hereditary prime minister of the Great White North...
cited what he said was evidence of potential Indian government involvement, prompting a diplomatic crisis with New Delhi.

Nijjar was a Canadian citizen campaigning for the creation of Khalistan, an independent Sikh homeland carved out of India. The presence of Sikh separatist groups in Canada has long frustrated New Delhi, which had labeled Nijjar a "terrorist".
