Sukhdool Singh, a Khalistani terrorist, also known as Sukha Duneke, was reportedly killed last night in Canada during a gang war. Duneke participated in the Khalistan movement. The name of Lawrence Bishnoi is doing the rounds in this murder.
In 2017, Duneke, a “Category A” criminal from Punjab’s Moga, eluded capture by traveling to Canada with a false passport. He is one of 43 gangsters with connections to Khalistan. He was a close aide of gangster and Khalistani terrorist Arshdeep Dalla.
Duneke’s killing comes in the backdrop of a huge diplomatic row between India and Canada after Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau told the House of Commons earlier this week that his government had “credible allegations” that linked Indian government agents to the killing of Khalistani terrorist Hardeep Singh Nijjar on Canadian soil in June.
India and Canada have expelled a senior diplomat each following Trudeau’s accusations. India has denied the allegations, calling them “absurd” and “motivated.” India had issued a travel advisory yesterday for its citizens in Canada, a day after Canada updated its own advisory for India.
Earlier, Nijjar, 45, an Indian terrorist and chief of the banned Khalistan Tiger Force (KTF), was killed outside a gurdwara in Surrey, British Columbia, on 18 June. He was one of India’s most wanted terrorists who carried a cash reward of Rs 10 lakh.
No evidence shared by Canada over Nijjar killing: MEA
NEW DELHI: The Ministry of External Affairs (MEA) on Thursday said that no information has been shared by Canada regarding the killing of Khalistani extremist Hardeep Singh Nijjar. “We are willing to look at any specific information that is provided to us, but so far, we have received no specific information from Canada,” MEA spokesperson Arindam Bagchi said. “From our side, specific evidence about criminal activities by individuals based on Canadian soil has been shared with Canada but not acted upon,” Bagchi added. Underlining that terrorism is something that should be looked at, Bagchi called it a fact that it is funded and supported by Pakistan and the issue of safe havens, and places to operate have been provided abroad, including in Canada. Meanwhile, visa services provider BLS International has with immediate effect suspended Indian visa services in Canada, amid a diplomatic standoff between the countries. “Due to operation reasons, with immediate effect i.e. 21 September 2023, Indian visa services in Canada have been suspended till further notice,” the company informed stock exchanges in a filing on Thursday.
