US indictment, Canadian police findings match our stand on gang networks: India
India said US indictment and Canadian police findings confirm its stand on gang networks behind the 2023 killing of Hardeep Singh Nijjar.
US authorities charged Lawrence Bishnoi and Satinderjeet Singh alias Goldy Brar for ordering Nijjar's assassination under Operation Hard Ball.
RCMP deputy commissioner Lisa Moreland said evidence did not point to involvement of Indian officials in the killing, contradicting former Canadian PM Justin Trudeau's claim.
Twenty-four people linked to three India-based transnational criminal gangs were arrested in the case.
India's external affairs ministry spokesperson Randhir Jaiswal emphasized strong cooperation with US and Canada in combating terrorism and transnational crime.
