This is the best summary I could come up with:
Trudeau’s comments came a day after three Indian men were arrested in Edmonton and charged with murder in the death of Hardeep Singh Nijjar.
A few months later, Trudeau cited credible allegations of Indian government involvement, prompting a diplomatic crisis with New Delhi.
“This is important because Canada is a rule-of-law country with a strong and independent justice system, as well as a fundamental commitment to protecting all its citizens,” Trudeau said Saturday at a Toronto gala celebrating Sikh heritage and culture.
Police in Canada said they had worked with U.S. law enforcement agencies, without giving additional details, and suggested more arrests might be coming.
Jaishankar said he had seen news of the arrests and that the suspects “apparently are Indians of some kind of gang background … we’ll have to wait for the police to tell us.”
At an event on Saturday in the state of Odisha, Jaishankar criticized the Canadian government for allowing people with links to organized crime into the country.
