Trudeau Accuses India of Killing Sikh Separatist, Sparking Diplomatic Row

Canadian PM Trudeau publicly accused Indian agents of killing Sikh separatist Nijjar before Canadian newspaper could break the story.

Trudeau's public allegations angered India, leading to tit-for-tat diplomatic expulsions between Canada and India.

Evidence behind Trudeau's allegations remains unclear, though Canada's allies say claims are serious.

Canada urgently wanted trade deal with India before row erupted over Nijjar murder allegations.

Journalist doesn't believe conspiracy theory that someone engineered row to scuttle Canada-India trade deal.
