More than a week has passed since Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau made an explosive and unsubstantiated claim about the so-called Indian government agents’ involvement in the killing of Khalistani terrorist Hardeep Singh Nijjar.

The Canadian law enforcement officials—who have been on the case since June when Nijjar was murdered outside a Sikh temple in Surrey—too have not been able to provide a shred of evidence that potentially links the Indian government to Nijjar's&nbsp;killing, which was initially attributed to a gang war.

A report by the Washington Post claiming that there was a delay in the investigation of Nijjar’s death and that the police’s response initially was slow had received a prompt reply from the Royal Canadian Mounted Police (RCMP).

While the RCMP gave a detailed riposte to the Post’s report to justify how it was quick on the murder scene, WION’s questions were met with deafening silence when asked about the progress of the probe.
