Multiple outlets report that a member of the Bishnoi gang is charged in Canada in connection with ordering the 2023 killing of Sikh leader Hardeep Singh Nijjar in British Columbia. Canadian coverage says RCMP attributes the alleged plot to Bishnoi gang-linked members and frames the case as part of broader criminal activity attributed to the group. Global News also reports that RCMP describes the groups involved as engaged in extortion, drug trafficking, kidnapping, and widespread violence, pointing to Nijjar’s killing as one example. The reporting further notes that the U.S. has announced arrests connected to the same alleged criminal network. While details of the charges and the identities of additional accused individuals vary by outlet, both sources describe the overall case as involving cross-border law-enforcement coordination and allegations that the accused ordered the targeted attack in B.C. The articles present the charges as pending matters in court and do not indicate convictions.
