Canada and India expel diplomats | EUROtoday

The dispute between India and Canada over the Indian authorities’s alleged connection to the homicide of a Canadian citizen continues to escalate. Canadian police accused India’s authorities on Tuesday of being concerned in felony violence, extortion and killings of members of the Sikh non secular neighborhood in Canada. Canada’s Foreign Ministry subsequently expelled the Indian ambassador and 5 different diplomats. In return, the Indian authorities introduced the expulsion of six Canadian diplomats, together with the cost d’affaires of the Canadian embassy in New Delhi. India “strongly rejects the absurd allegations,” the Foreign Ministry stated in an announcement on Tuesday.
