BHUBANESWAR: Foreign Minister S Jaishankar said on Saturday India will wait for Canadian police to share information on the three Indian men it has arrested and charged with the murder of a Khalistani terrorist last year.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Jaishankar said the suspects “apparently are Indians of some kind of gang background. We’ll have to wait for the police to tell us. But, as I said, one of our concerns that we have been telling them is that, you know, they have allowed organized crime from India, specifically from Punjab, to operate in Canada.” <\/p>\n\n\n\n
“What is happening in election-bound Canada over the killing of Khalistan separatist Hardeep Singh Nijjar is mostly due to their internal politics and has nothing to do with India,” he said, and he contended that Canada accuses India of wrongdoing without substantiating its claims.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Canadian police, who charged the trio on Friday over the murder of Hardeep Singh Nijjar, said they were probing whether the suspects had links to the Indian government.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The trio, all Indian nationals, were arrested in the city of Edmonton in Alberta on Friday, police said, as reported by agencies.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Nijjar (45) was shot dead in June outside a Gurdwara in Surrey, a Vancouver suburb with a large Sikh population. A few months later, Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau alleged Indian government involvement, prompting a diplomatic crisis with New Delhi.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
