Three Indian men have been arrested in Canada and charged with the murder of Sikh separatist leader Hardeep Singh Nijjar in British Columbia last year. The suspects, identified as Kamalpreet Singh, 22, Karan Brar, 22, and Karanpreet Singh, 28, appeared in court via video link and agreed to a trial in English. They have been charged with first-degree murder and conspiracy to commit murder.
Last year, Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau mentioned 'credible allegations' of Indian involvement in Nijjar's murder, sparking a diplomatic dispute between the two countries. However, the Indian government has stated that no specific evidence linking Delhi to the crime has been shared by Canadian authorities.
