Canadian Police Arrest Fourth Suspect in Murder of Sikh Leader
Canadian authorities have made a fourth arrest in connection with the murder of Sikh separatist leader Hardeep Singh Nijjar. The suspect, Amandeep Singh, has been charged with first-degree murder and conspiracy to commit murder in the case.
The murder, which took place last year outside a Sikh temple in Surrey, British Columbia, sparked a diplomatic row between Canada and India. Prime Minister Justin Trudeau raised concerns about possible Indian government involvement, leading to tensions between the two nations.
Nijjar, a Canadian citizen advocating for an independent Sikh homeland, was a controversial figure in the eyes of the Indian government, which labeled him a “terrorist.” The arrest of multiple suspects, including Singh, sheds new light on the ongoing investigation into Nijjar’s death.
