Khalistani terrorists: Canadian police on Friday arrested three Indian citizens in the murder case of Khalistani separatist Hardeep Singh Nijjar. This information has been given in media reports. Police believe those arrested are members of an alleged group that was tasked by the Indian government to kill Nijjar last year.
In September last year, Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau had alleged that the killing of Niger was included in the Indian agenda. After this there was tension in the relations between India and Canada. India rejected Trudeau's allegations as 'absurd' and 'motivated'. News reports said police arrested the men on Friday during a search operation in at least two Canadian provinces. Sources said that a few months ago, the police had identified these people as a group of people involved in the murder of Nijjar and the police were keeping an eye on them.
the shooter is a young man
According to sources, three people have been arrested and charged on the day Nijjar was murdered outside a gurudwara in British Columbia. During that time these people used to work as shooters, drivers etc. CTV News quoted a senior government source as saying that three people had been arrested over Niger's murder.
Court documents show that those identified as Indian citizens
Karanpreet Singh, Kamalpreet Singh and Karan Brad are accused of murdering Nijjar and conspiring to murder. Global News reports the suspects have been identified as Indian citizens. It is reported that Canadian police arrested the Indian nationals on Friday morning, a year after Nijjar was shot dead.
The accused had come on student visa
According to sources, the suspects had entered Canada on student visas, but may have been acting on instructions from Indian intelligence when they shot Nijjar. Speaking to reporters on Portfolio Hill, Canada's Defense Minister refused to confirm the Indian government's connection and said only Canadian police could better answer that question.
