UNITED NATIONS (Reuters) - U.S. authorities have been in close contact with their Canadian counterparts about allegations the Indian government was involved in the murder of a Sikh separatist leader in Canada and have urged India to cooperate with the investigation, a senior State Department official said on Tuesday.
"We have been in close contact with our Canadian colleagues about this. We're quite concerned about the allegations. We think it's important there is a full and open investigation and we would urge the Indian Government to cooperate with that investigation," the official told reporters at a news briefing.
Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau said authorities were "actively pursuing credible allegations" linking New Delhi's agents to the murder of a Sikh separatist leader, an assertion India quickly dismissed as absurd.
The spat deals a fresh blow to diplomatic ties that have been fraying for years, with New Delhi unhappy over Sikh separatist activity in Canada. It now threatens trade ties too, with talks on a proposed trade deal frozen last week.
Each nation also expelled a diplomat in tat-for-tat moves, with Canada throwing out India's top intelligence officer there while New Delhi responded by giving a Canadian diplomat five days to leave.

West does not understand, separatist fires that westerns courtiers love to light in other countries devastate the local population with bloodshed and misery. You don't realize but your virtue signaling is detrimental to the existence of other countries.
Here is a proper issue for US to show concern....."A life is a life’: Seattle protests death of Indian student hit by police car".
US/UK/West decided and designate Osama Bin Laden a terrorist and even sent an army to kill him in Afghanistan. Who gave the West the authority to design OBL a terrorist and even kill him? Did they discuss that with India?

Great that this terrorist guy was killed. Even if India did it, one less terrorist in the world and more lives saved. This guy doesn't sound so innocent and i'm sure he has no problems killing innocent people to get what he wants. That's what a "militant's" aka "terrorist's" goals are.
This kind of action by Canada is going to further drive terrorism activities towards India. Neither the US or Canada cares unless it affects them.
US expressing concerns about terrorist killing is like naming Al Capone as chairmen of committee on investigating evils of organized crime!

Canadian investigators should not forget to investigate possibility of a drug deal gone sour resulting in him being shot before accusing India.
US should urge Trudeau to not toot lies until investigation is complete. One side allegation is just that.
Canadians be careful. You never know if they'll turn into suicide bombers. Or they will work in IT and send sensitive data back to Modi. They're spies. ALL of them.
