U.S. Calls for India’s Cooperation in Canadian Criminal Investigations

 

The United States has urged India to cooperate with Canada in its ongoing criminal investigations, particularly those linked to New Delhi. This call comes amid heightened tensions between the two nations following the murder of a Sikh Canadian citizen. The U.S. emphasized the importance of collaboration to ensure justice and maintain diplomatic relations.
