    This is the best summary I could come up with:


    Sikh leader killed earlier this year says he feels a sense of relief after Prime Minister Justin Trudeau accused the Indian government Monday of being involved in the fatal shooting.

    Balraj Singh Nijjar, 21, was speaking publicly for the first time since the shooting death of his father Hardeep, 45, on June 18, shortly after evening prayers at the Guru Nanak Sikh Gurdwara in Surrey.

    Trudeau said in the House of Commons that intelligence reports had found credible links between Indian government agents and the killing, though no one has been charged yet.

    The Indian government had previously offered a reward for Hardeep’s arrest, accusing the gurdwara president of heading a violent separatist movement for an independent Sikh state called Khalistan.

    Balraj, the elder of Hardeep’s two sons, said his family and close friends always suspected the Indian government was behind his father’s brazen killing.

    Balraj was speaking three months to the day after his father was killed and stood a few metres away from where Hardeep was sitting in his pickup truck when he was shot.
