Nijjar Killing: Haven’t Received Anything Worthy Of Being Probed By Indian Agencies: S. Jaishankar

In response to a fourth arrest made by Canada in the killing of Khalistani terrorist Hardeep Singh Nijjar, External Affairs Minister S. Jaishankar on Monday said India has not received anything specific and worthy of being pursued by its investigative agencies.

Fourth Indian Arrested In Nijjar Killing Case

S. Jaishankar said New Delhi was open to a probe if Ottawa shared any evidence or information related to any violence that is relevant to be investigated in India.

“We have never received anything which is specific and worthy of being pursued by our investigative agencies and I am not aware that anything has changed in the last few days in that regard,” Jaishankar said in response to a question during a press conference.

Hardeep Singh Nijjar was killed outside Guru Nanak Sikh Gurdwara in Surrey, British Columbia on June 18, 2023.

A fourth Indian national has been arrested by Canadian authorities in connection with the killing of Nijjar, a week after police arrested three Indians linked with the high-profile case.
