Recalled Indian High Commissioner to Canada, Sanjay Kumar Verma, alleged that Khalistani extremists and terrorists are "deep assets" of Canada Security Intelligence Service (CSIS).

Indian envoy Sanjay Kumar Verma, who was recalled after Canada said senior diplomats were "persons of interest" in the Hardeep Singh Nijjar murder probe, has said that Khalistani extremists and terrorists are "deep assets" of Canada Security Intelligence Service (CSIS).

Indian envoy Sanjay Kumar Verma states Canada has not provided evidence in the Nijjar case, calling Ottawa's charges politically motivated.
