Prime Minister Justin Trudeau said Canada will follow the evidence and “hold people to account” for the murder of a Sikh leader in Canada that his government says was masterminded by India.
“The government of India needs to take this matter with the utmost seriousness,” Trudeau said, without specifically naming Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi. He spoke Tuesday morning in Ottawa on his way into a cabinet meeting, one day after Canada expelled a senior Indian diplomat from the country.
