Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau plans to leverage the Royal Canadian Mounted Police (RCMP) and the National Security and Intelligence Review Agency (NSIRA) to pursue allegations of Indian government interference in Canada, reports in the Indian media said.
This follows Trudeau’s assertion that India may have been involved in the assassination of Sikh leader Hardeep Singh Nijjar earlier this year.
