India Demands Canada Withdraw Dozens of Diplomats Over Murder Accusation

India has demanded that Canada withdraw dozens of diplomats from the country amid a deepening rift between the two nations over the murder of a Canadian Sikh separatist. The demand comes after Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau accused India of playing a role in the killing. The Financial Times reports that India threatened to revoke the diplomatic immunity of around 40 Canadian diplomats if they remain after October 10. Canada has expressed a desire for private talks with India to resolve the diplomatic crisis. It is expected that the Canadian government will issue an official statement regarding the situation.
