Canadian authorities have said that their investigation has not concluded and “others” who played a role in the homicide would also be arrested. Nijjar’s killing was at the centre-stage of a diplomatic and political row between India and Canada last year after Prime Minister Justin Trudeau alleged the role of “Indian agents’’ in the murder. India rejected the charge as “absurd’’ and “motivated.’’
Canadian authorities have arrested Karan Brar, 22, Kamalpreet Singh, 22, and Karanpreet Singh, 28, all Indian nationals residing in Edmonton, and charged them with first-degree murder and conspiracy to commit murder.
The Royal Canadian Mounted Police (RCMP) on Friday said they are investigating if the... Indian government was involved in the killing of Nijjar, a Canadian citizen.
The three are believed to be members of an alleged hit squad which the Canadian government alleged was tasked by the government of India with the killing of Nijjar, 45, outside a gurdwara in Surrey, British Columbia, on June 18, 2023.
“The investigation does not end here. We are aware that there are others out there that played a role in this homicide and we remain dedicated to identifying and arresting each one of them,” Superintendent Mandeep Mooker, Officer in Charge of the Integrated Homicide Investigation Team (IHIT) said.
