India’s home minister Amit Shah sanctioned a wave a violence targeting Sikh separatists across Canada, a senior official in the North American country said.
Mr Shah, prime minister Narendra Modi’s chief lieutenant, was identified by Canadian security agencies as the “senior official in India” who “authorised the intelligence-gathering missions and attacks on Sikh separatists” in the country, The Washington Post reported earlier this month based on information supplied by a Canadian source.
