Canada appeared to maintain its stance amid the country’s diplomatic row with India as Canadian Foreign Minister Melanie Joly said on Saturday (October 19) that remaining Indian diplomats in Canada were “clearly on notice”. Her statement has come just days after India withdrew six of its diplomats from Canada including its high commissioner and expelled six Canadian diplomats.
The withdrawal took place after Canada conveyed India that the high commissioner and other diplomats were ‘persons of interest’ in a murder investigation. Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau has already accused Indian ‘agents’ of having been involved in murder of pro-Khalistan terrorist Hardeep Singh Nijjar in Canada.
India has strongly denied the allegations.
