Bharatiya Janata Yuva Morcha (BJYM) national secretary Tejinder Pall Singh Bagga on Monday made a sensational claim, saying killed Sikh separatist Hardeep Singh Nijjar was gay and that Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau used to like him.

His statement comes amid a diplomatic standoff between India and Canada that ensued after Trudeau alleged the Indian government was involved in Nijjar’s killing. India has asked Canada to provide proof to back the allegations but none have come yet.

      He gets at least one thing so wrong I have to question the reliability of the entire thing.

      Nijjar has been a landed Canadian immigrants since 1997, not 2007, and its important to note that he got that status via a quick marriage after being denied refugee status.

      2006 was the first time India claimed him to be some kind of terrorist mastermind.

      Thanks. This topic seems complicated and that there is no moral winner. India cannot assassinate foreign citizens. At the same time, creating a hostile Sikh movement using Canada as a shield should not be tolerated either. We need better anti-extremist programs for every race, culture, and religious groups. I’m just so tired of hate.
