India had earlier also demanded his arrest
India has also demanded Canada to arrest Dalla in 2023. But the Canadian government rejected it at that time. India had informed Canada in January 2023 about Dalla's suspected address, his transactions in India, his assets and mobile numbers.
India had asked Canada to verify this information under the MLAT treaty (Mutual Legal Assistance Treaty). In December 2023, the Canadian Department of Justice had sought additional information from India on the matter. India responded to this in March.
Dalla is named in more than 50 cases
Arsh is close to Khalistani terrorist Hardeep Singh Nijjar and more than 50 cases are pending against him in India. These include murder, attempt to murder, extortion, terrorist activities and terror funding.
In May 2022, the Government of India had issued a Red Corner Notice against Arsh Dalla. After this, he was declared a terrorist in the year 2023.
To avoid arrest, Arsh fled from Punjab to Canada and started carrying out his activities from there. Indian agencies have been trying to catch Dalla for a long time.
