Two men have been charged with first-degree murder in the death of Ripudaman Singh Malik, the man acquitted in 2005 for the bombings of two Air India jets that killed 331 people.
Family members of a victim arrive at the scene as police investigate a fatal shooting in Surrey, British Columbia, Canada, on Thursday, July 14, 2022. Ripudaman Singh Malik, the man acquitted in the 1985 Air India terrorist bombing, appears to have been killed in the shooting, according to several media outlets.
An employee who works at a nearby car wash said he heard shots and ran outside to find Malik unconscious in his red Tesla. A similar response was given when reporters asked if anyone else was involved or if other suspects were at large. Malik and his co-accused, Ajaib Singh Bagri, were found not guilty of murder and conspiracy in the Air India bombings on June 23, 1985.
