Canada police arrest 'hit squad members' linked to murder of Sikh leader Nijjar, says CBC

Canadian police on Friday arrested members of an alleged hit squad linked to the murder of Sikh separatist leader Hardeep Singh Nijjar in British Columbia last year, the Canadian Broadcasting Corporation said on Friday.

Sources said investigators had identified the suspects in Canada some months ago and had been keeping them under tight surveillance, the CBC said.

The Royal Canadian Mounted Police were not immediately available for comment.
