India says Canada has shared no evidence to back its allegation that the Indian government was involved in the slaying of a Sikh separatist leader in Canada.
India said Thursday that Canada has shared no evidence to back its allegation that the Indian government was involved in last year's slaying of a Sikh separatist leader in Canada, despite this week's arrest of three Indian nationals in the crime. India’s External Affairs Ministry spokesman Randhir Jaiswal also reiterated India’s long-standing allegation that Canada harbors Indian extremists.
Meanwhile, he said that New Delhi has complained to Canadian authorities that separatists, extremists and those advocating violence against India have been allowed entry and residency in Canada. “Many of our extradition requests are pending,” he said. “Our diplomats have been threatened with impunity and obstructed in their performance of duties,” Jaiswal added. “We are having discussions at the diplomatic level on all these matters,” he said.
