Canada Alleges Indian Official Ordered Campaign Against Sikh Separatists [Video]

Deputy Foreign Affairs Minister David Morrison testified before the national security committee Tuesday, revealing that Shah’s involvement had been confirmed to The Washington Post, which initially reported the claims.
