Sikh protesters gathered outside the Indian diplomatic missions of main Canadian cities on Monday, a week after Prime Minister Justin Trudeau raised the prospect of New Delhi’s involvement in the murder of a Sikh separatist leader in British Columbia.

“We’ve been saying that all these consulate offices are housing the killers of the Sikhs,” protestor Bhagat Brar said. “There’s a lot of anger in the community, the community has been saying this for years — that all these consular offices, the Indian government is interfering in Sikh affairs in Canada.”

Trudeau said last week Canada was pursuing “credible allegations” that Indian government agents may be linked to the killing of Hardeep Singh Nijjar, who was shot dead outside a Sikh temple on June 18 in Surrey, a Vancouver suburb with a high Sikh population.

India swiftly denied any role in the killing and described the allegations as “absurd.” The accusations have sparked tensions between the two countries, with each nation expelling diplomats, and New Delhi suspending visas for Canadians.
