Canadian Prime Minister, Justin Trudeau has rehashed allegations that there are credible reasons to believe that Indian secret agents may have been behind the murder of a Sikh separatist, Hardeep Singh Nijjar on Canadian soil.
Singh Nijjar – who India designated a terrorist in 2020 – was shot dead outside a Canadian temple in June.
Though India designated Nijjar a terrorist, his supporters reject the claim, saying he was a peaceful activist who backed the demand for a separate homeland for Sikhs.
Trudeau first made the allegation on Monday, which India has strongly rejected, calling them absurd and has resulted in an ugly diplomatic row between two countries that have historically shared close ties and good trade relations.
