Prime Minister Justin Trudeau made it clear on Sunday that the investigation into the killing of India-designated terrorist Hardeep Singh Nijjar extends beyond the recent arrest of three Indian nationals and is still ongoing.
Trudeau emphasized the importance of upholding the rule of law in Canada, stating, “Canada is a rule-of-law country.”
His remarks followed the recent arrests of three Indian nationals suspected of involvement in Nijjar’s killing. The Canadian police, in an ongoing probe, released photographs of the arrested individuals, although they haven’t provided any evidence linking them to India, contrary to speculations in Canadian media. India has vehemently denied these allegations, labeling them as “absurd and motivated.”
Speaking at the Sikh Foundation of Canada’s Centennial Gala event at the Royal Ontario Museum, Trudeau acknowledged the arrests in connection with Nijjar’s murder and underscored that the investigation continues.
Trudeau emphasized Canada’s commitment to a robust and independent justice system, stating, “This is important because Canada is a rule-of-law country with a strong and independent justice system, as well as a fundamental commitment to protecting all its citizens.”
Acknowledging the apprehensions within the Sikh community, Trudeau reassured Canadians that everyone has the right to live safely and without fear of discrimination or violence. He urged them to remain calm and steadfast in their commitment to democratic principles and the justice system.
Trudeau’s remarks underscore Canada’s dedication to upholding the rule of law and ensuring justice for all its citizens, even as the investigation into Nijjar’s killing unfolds.
