Modi government agents alleged to have collaborated with syndicate run by mob boss Lawrence Bishnoi

Canadian police have accused the Indian government of working with a criminal network run by one of India’s most notorious gangsters, Lawrence Bishnoi, to carry out targeted killings of dissidents in Canada.

diplomatic row broke out between India and Canada on Monday after Canadian police accused Indian diplomats of “criminal” activities in the country, including extortion, intimidation, coercion and harassment, and involvement in targeted killings of Canadian citizens.

Canadian police said they had uncovered evidence that implicated India’s top diplomat, Sanjay Verma, in the killing of Hardeep Singh Nijjar, a Sikh activist who was gunned down outside a gurdwara in a suburb of Vancouver in June last year.

    Man. As a Canadian I wished my government gave a shit about me, as much as they do about Indian citizens in India. My government provides more aid to foreign citizens than they do to canadians

      Yeah, I can’t believe the Canadian government cares about… Canadian residents and citizens being gunned down, in Canada, on orders from the Indian government.
