Following Canada’s bombshell revelations about Sikh leader assassination, Pakistan Peoples Party (PPP) Chairman and former foreign minister Bilawal Bhutto Zardari said India has become a “rogue and terrorist state” which was “caught violating the sovereignty of a NATO member state”.
Speaking to the media in Lahore on Tuesday, the former foreign minister urged the international community to take note of New Delhi’s involvement in “terrorist acts”.
“This is a huge allegation. India has been exposed before the world. And for how long international and our friends in West would continue ignoring such acts of India,” the PPP chief added.
Canada said on Monday that it was “actively pursuing credible allegations” linking Indian government agents to the murder of Hardeep Singh Nijjar’s assassination in Vancouver around three months ago.
In a shocking statement before the parliament on Monday evening, PM Trudeau said Canada’s national security agencies are investigating “credible allegations” that the “agents of the government of India” were involved in the killing of the prominent Canadian Sikh leader.
“Over the past number of weeks, Canadian security agencies have been actively pursuing credible allegations of a potential link between agents of the government of India and the killing of a Canadian citizen Hardeep Singh Nijjar,” Trudeau said, addressing the House of Commons about an “extremely serious matter,” after informing the opposition party leaders.
Commenting on Trudeau’s revelations today, Bilawal called upon the international community to accept that “India has become a rogue, Hindutva, and terrorist state that not only conducted terrorism in Kashmir [but] we in Pakistan caught their spies involved in terrorism”.
He said this time the Indian government had been found caught violating the sovereignty of a NATO member state.
“This is not only a violation of Canadian sovereignty but this a violation of international law and norms,” he added.
He also urged Pakistan to call upon the international community to stand with the people of Canada and highlight the atrocities of the “religio-fascist state”.
