India tells U.S. that rogue operatives were involved in alleged plot to kill Sikh separatist: report
Members of United Hindu Front organisation shout slogans as they hold banners depicting Justin Trudeau Canada's Prime Minister (L,R) and Gurpatwant Singh Pannun (2L) a lawyer believed to be based in Canada designated as a Khalistani terrorist by the Indian authorities during a rally along a street in New Delhi on September 24, 2023. In an interview with an Indian news channel, Pannun said Nijjar had been his "close associate" for over 20 years and was like a "younger brother" to him. He also blamed India for Nijjar's killing. A diplomatic firestorm erupted this week with Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau saying there were "credible reasons to believe that agents of the government of India were involved" in Nijjar's death.
