Canada’s Justin Trudeau Answers A Key Question Over Hardeep Nijjar’s Killing Probe [Video]

Ottawa :

Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau on Thursday said they are looking to work constructively with the Indian government in the probe into the killing of designated terrorist Hardeep Singh Nijjar.

According to Canada-based Cable Public Affairs Channel (CPAC), Mr Trudeau was asked, “How is India’s cooperation shaping up on the assassination investigations of Canadian citizen Hardeep Singh Nijjar when Canada has credible allegations and India expects Canada to complete its own investigation first?”

The Canadian PM responded saying, “The killing of a Canadian citizen on Canadian soil is something that we all should take extremely seriously.”

“The credible allegations that agents of the Indian government were involved in–that is something that we did not declare lightly, but our responsibility to protect all Canadians from illegal actions by foreign governments is something that, as a country grounded in diversity, we need to take very seriously,” he added.

India has earlier denied the charges as baseless.
