Prime Minister Justin Trudeau announced the expulsion of India's high commissioner and five other diplomats, identifying them as persons of interest in a murder investigation.
Canada's foreign minister Melanie Joly stated that the Royal Canadian Mounted Police had gathered 'ample, clear and concrete evidence' linking India to the assassination of Sikh activist Hardeep Singh Nijjar.
Trudeau emphasized the seriousness of the situation, declaring that foreign government involvement in threatening Canadian citizens would not be tolerated, characterizing the situation as a significant diplomatic conflict.
India's foreign ministry described Canada's allegations as absurd, responding by expelling Canada's acting high commissioner and five others in response to the accusations.
