In a recent report by The Washington Post, a startling revelation has emerged regarding the murder of Khalistani terrorist Hardeep Singh Nijjar in Surrey on June 18, 2022. The report suggests a larger and more organized operation than initially reported, shedding light on a sequence of events that bear a striking resemblance to patterns observed in gang violence incidents in both Punjab and Canada.
The Washington Post, having reviewed a 90-second video recording of the murder captured by a Gurudwara security camera and witness accounts, contends that at least six men and two vehicles were involved in the murder.
According to the report, the surveillance footage shows Nijjar’s gray pickup truck leaving a parking space, followed by a white sedan that drives parallel to the truck. As the two vehicles approach the parking lot exit, the sedan blocks the truck’s path, and two individuals with hooded sweatshirts approach the truck, each pointing a firearm at the driver’s seat.
What’s intriguing is that the report suggests a similarity in the modus operandi seen in gang-related incidents. Furthermore, The Washington Post highlights that the two individuals who shot Nijjar were described as Sikhs, according to community members.
Witnesses, including Gurudwara committee member Malkit Singh, described the gunmen as wearing Sikh attire with hoodies and masks covering their faces. One was described as approximately five feet tall and heavyset, while the other was about four inches taller and leaner.
After the shooting, these individuals fled the scene and entered a waiting silver car with three other men inside, as narrated by Malkit Singh. Notably, The Washington Post indicates that many witnesses and residents along the assailants’ escape route claim they have not been contacted by authorities.
The details presented in this report cast doubt on the Canadian allegations against India in the murder case, as they suggest a less coordinated and exposed operation than one would expect for the neutralization of a wanted terrorist on foreign soil. The witness accounts and the apparent lethargy in the investigation raise questions about the nature of the incident.
Furthermore, the report highlights that Canadian authorities have been slow in their response and information sharing, leaving the local Sikh community with many unanswered questions.
This revelation challenges the previous narrative surrounding Nijjar’s murder and points to potential gang rivalry as a driving factor in the incident.
