Trudeau’s “India’s Agents” Charge, US said it is “deeply concerned” about the allegations
New Delhi: Soon after Canada Prime Minister accused India of being behind the killing of Khalistani terrorist Hardeep Singh Nijjar, the US said it is “deeply concerned” about the allegations.
“The US was deeply concerned about the allegations disclosed by Prime Minister Justin Trudeau”, National Security Council spokesperson Adrienne Watson said in an emailed statement.
“It is critical that Canada’s investigation proceed and the perpetrators be brought to justice,” Ms Watson said. Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau said his government had “credible allegations” linking Hardeep Singh Nijjar’s killing with the “agents of the Government of India.” India has rejected the allegations as “absurd and motivated”.
“Such unsubstantiated” allegations seek to shift the focus from Khalistani terrorists and extremists, who have been provided “shelter in Canada and continue to threaten India’s sovereignty and territorial integrity,” the foreign ministry said in a statement.
