India’s foreign minister reacts to murder charges, claims Canada welcomes criminals

OTTAWA – India’s Foreign Affairs Minister accused Canada of welcoming criminals from his country in response to the RCMP’s recent arrests in a homicide that has roiled tensions between the two countries.

Subrahmanyam Jaishankar also called Ottawa the No. 1 driver of what he described as a violent movement of Sikhs trying to carve their own country out of India.

“It’s not so much a problem in the U.S.; our biggest problem right now is in Canada,” Jaishankar said Saturday during remarks at a forum for intellectuals in India.
