Overview
- Bloomberg Originals reports that UK signals intelligence intercepted calls about three targets and hand-delivered a restricted dossier to Ottawa in July 2023.
- The conversations allegedly referenced Hardeep Singh Nijjar, Avtar Singh Khanda and Gurpatwant Singh Pannun, including a line that Nijjar had been “successfully eliminated.”
- The documentary says the file was kept off electronic systems and shown only to a small group of Canadian officials pre‑approved by London under Five Eyes protocols.
- Sikh Federation UK says it has written to Security Minister Dan Jarvis seeking explanations about the intelligence, including any material relevant to Khanda’s death.
- India rejects the allegations as absurd and politically motivated, while Canada–India ties have cautiously improved in 2025 with leaders meeting at the G7 and envoys restored.
