This is the best summary I could come up with:
Canada has expelled a top Indian diplomat from the country, after Prime Minister Justin Trudeau described “credible allegations” linking India’s government to the assassination of a Canadian citizen and prominent Sikh leader.
“Over the past number of weeks, Canadian security agencies have been actively pursuing credible allegations of a potential link between agents of the government of India and the killing of a Canadian citizen Hardeep Singh Nijjar,” Trudeau said in parliament on Monday, adding his government would take all steps necessary ‘“to hold perpetrators of this murder to account.”
His death both shocked and outraged the large Sikh community in Canada that now numbers in the hundreds of thousands
India designated Nijjar a terrorist threat several years ago, labeling him part of a separatist movement for Sikhism.
“Today we’re acting by expelling a key diplomat, but we will get to the bottom of this,” she told reporters in Ottawa on Monday.
Trudeau also said Monday that he had brought Canada’s concerns over the assassination “personally and directly” to Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi last week at the G20.
