In fact, Canada had expressed suspicion of India's involvement in the murder, after which India had called its statement completely absurd. Now Canadian Police is naming the three as Karan Brar (22), Kamalpreet Singh (22), Karanpreet Singh (28). Police say that all three were living in Edmonton, Alberta for about 3 to 5 years. RCMP gave this information through a press conference. Canadian Police said he has been charged with first-degree murder and conspiracy to commit murder.

The Indian government had already made its stand clear on Canada's allegations regarding the murder of Hardeep Nijjar. India had completely rejected Canada's allegations, calling them absurd and baseless.

Canadian police say they are now investigating the three suspects for possible ties to the Indian government, though they did not provide any further details. The investigating team says Canada's relations with India have been "very difficult and challenging" for many years.

IHIT officer-in-charge and Superintendent Mandeep Mukar and RCMP Assistant Commissioners David Teboul and Brian Edwards confirmed the arrest of the three suspects while speaking to reporters. According to the information, Canadian Police had identified the three suspects and were continuously keeping an eye on them. Police arrested all three during a search operation.

Canada has been continuously blaming India for the murder of Khalistani terrorist Hardeep Singh Nijjar. Last year, Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau had alleged India's involvement in Nijjar's murder. However, India had rejected it as completely absurd and baseless. However, after such allegations by Canada, relations between the two countries soured and a major diplomatic dispute arose.
