Story summary

Two men from British Columbia, Manjinder Singh and Narinder Singh Randhawa, received duty-to-warn notices from police warning them of potential threats to their lives due to their involvement in pro-Khalistan activism. The RCMP confirmed that such notifications have been made across Canada to members of the South Asian community, but did not confirm specific cases. The two men believe the threats are linked to the Indian government's alleged efforts at transnational repression in Canada, which they claim is responsible for several incidents, including the 2023 killing of Hardeep Singh Nijjar. Randhawa accused the Indian government of "killing Canadian citizens on Canadian soil" and called for an end to such actions. The Indian government has previously denied similar allegations related to the targeting of Khalistan supporters.
