NEW DELHI/OTTAWA: Canada expelled six Indian diplomats including the high commissioner on Monday, linking them to the murder of a Sikh separatist lead...
Canada’s Prime Minister Justin Trudeau, with Minister of Foreign Affairs Melanie Joly, and Minister of Public Safety, Democratic Institutions and Intergovernmental Affairs Dominic LeBlanc, takes part in a press conference about the Royal Canadian Mounted Police’s investigation into “violent criminal activity in Canada with connections to India”, on Parliament Hill in Ottawa, Ontario, Canada October 14, 2024.

The government now has “clear and compelling evidence that agents of the government of India have engaged in and continue to engage in activities that pose a significant threat to public safety,“ Trudeau said at a news conference. India has long denied Trudeau's accusations. On Monday, it dismissed Canada's move on the inquiry and accused Trudeau of pursuing a “political agenda.”
India said it had asked six Canadian diplomats to leave by Saturday. The ministry also said it had summoned Acting High Commissioner in India Stewart Wheeler, currently Canada's top diplomat in the South Asian country. Canada withdrew more than 40 diplomats from India in October 2023 after New Delhi asked Ottawa to reduce its diplomatic presence.
