New Delhi – Hardeep Singh Nijjar, the chief of the banned Khalistan Tiger Force (KTF) and one of India’s most-wanted terrorists was shot dead by two unidentified gunmen outside a gurdwara in Surrey in the western Canadian province of British Columbia on 18th June this year.

Report have now emerged that Pakistan’s spy agency Inter-Services Intelligence (ISI) could be responsible for killing Khalistani terrorist Hardeep Singh Nijjar in Canada in order to strain India-Canada ties, sources has said as reported by India Today. Other sources also told CNN-News18 that the two ISI plants in Canada, Rahat Rao and Tariq Kiyani, were given the task of killing Nijjar to take control of drugs and immigration business.
Editorial Perspective
If this is true, Justin Trudeau should openly apologise to India and take an action against Pakistan declaring it to be responsible for Nijjar’s killing. |
