The Indian government has started preparations to bring back Khalistani terrorist Arshdeep Singh Gill alias Arsh Dalla from Canada. The Ministry of External Affairs issued a statement on Thursday saying that Indian agencies will demand Dalla's extradition from Canada. The ministry said in the statement that we hope Canada will hand it over to India.
Dalla is currently in the custody of Canadian Police. Arsh Dalla was arrested during a shoot-out in Milton, Canada on October 28. At that time the police had not given any information about the identity of the accused.
Later sources revealed that the arrested accused was Arsh Dalla. The case has been listed in the Ontario Court of Canada for hearing. Dalla has many criminal cases registered against him in India. He is also involved in similar activities in Canada.
Had demanded arrest in 2023 also
India had demanded Canada's arrest of Dalla in 2023. But the Canadian government rejected this demand at that time. Meanwhile, in January 2023, India had informed Canada about Dalla's suspicious 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.
