India waits for details on arrests in Canada over Sikh separatist's murder

India’s great director to Canada, Sanjay Verma, stated that it hoped to receive regular updates about the three Indians who had been detained.

” I am aware that the appropriate Canadian law enforcement organizations conducted the studies that led to the arrests.” We do n’t have any comments to make about this because it is a national issue, Verma continued.

The group, all American immigrants, were arrested in the area of Edmonton in Alberta on Friday, authorities said.

Nijjar, 45, was shot dead in June outside a Sikh temple in Surrey, a Vancouver neighborhood with a huge Hindu community. Justin Trudeau, the prime minister of Canada, cited credible allegations of American state involvement, which sparked a political row with New Delhi a few months later.

Nijjar, a citizen of Canada, was leading the charge for India’s independence from Khalistan, an impartial Hindu country. New Delhi, which had labelled Nijjar a “terrorist,” has long been frustrated by the presence of Sikh dissident organizations in Canada.

French authorities said they had worked with US&nbsp, law enforcement agencies, without giving more details, and suggested more punishments may be coming.
