A Sikh Canadian separatist leader allegedly targeted for death by the Indian government says New Delhi arrested three of his secessionist colleagues Tuesday, part of what he called a crackdown on a cause that was championed by B.C.-based Hardeep Singh Nijjar before his fatal shooting last year.
Gurpatwant Pannun, the New York-based legal counsel for Sikhs for Justice, who also holds American citizenship, said he was in touch with the arrested men as recently as Monday. A criminal indictment unsealed in New York last November said a thwarted 2023 plot to kill Mr. Pannun was directed by an Indian government employee.
At least someone is doing their job.
