Khalistani Terrorist Pannun Says SFJ In Touch With Trudeau's Office For 2-3 Years, Shared Info Against India
Pannun, whose SFJ is banned in India for promoting Khalistani terror activities, said he shared information against India in Hardeep Singh Nijjar's murder case with the Canadian PMO.
Sikh separatist Gurpatwant Singh Pannun has revealed that his outfit Sikh For Justice (SFJ) was in touch with Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau's office for the last 2-3 years.
Pannun, whose SFJ is banned in India for promoting Khalistani terror activities, said he shared information against India in Hardeep Singh Nijjar's murder case with the Canadian prime minister's office.
In an interview with the Canadian news channel CBC News, Pannun said he provided information to Trudeau "detailing the spying network" of the Indian high commission.

"Trudeau's statement shows Canada's unwavering commitment to justice, rule of law, and national security. And Sikhs for Justice has been communicating with the Prime Minister's Office for the last 2-3 years, detailing all the spy network," Pannun said as per the video being widely shared on social media.
Pannun claimed his organisation informed the Canadian prime minister's office about how Indian High Commissioner Sanjay Verma and other officials laid out the spy networks which provided "logistics and intelligence support to the Indian agents who assassinated Hardeep Singh Nijjar".
The statement comes amid strained relations between India and Canada with New Delhi expelling six Canadian diplomats after summoning Canada's Charge d'Affaires Stewart Wheeler.
The major escalation of tension between the two countries come amid an investigation into the killing of Sikh extremist Hardeep Singh Nijjar. The MEA earlier today lambasted Canada for dragging the name of Sanjay Kumar Verma, New Delhi’s envoy to Ottawa, in its investigation into the murder of Nijjar.
New Delhi described the charges against Verma as concocted and preposterous imputations and ascribed the allegations to the political agenda of the Trudeau government that is centred around vote bank politics.
The relations between India and Canada has been under severe strain following Prime Minister Justin Trudeau's allegations in September 2023 of a potential involvement of Indian agents in the killing of Nijjar.
He was gunned down in Surrey, British Columbia, in June last year. New Delhi had rejected Trudeau's charges as absurd.
