‘We come for him (Nijjar), we come for his family, we come for our people’: Sikh spokesperson
The three suspects charged in the murder of Hardeep Singh Nijjar appeared in Surrey provincial court Tuesday, with dozens of Sikh community members both inside and outside the hearing.
Brar and Karanpreet Singh agreed through their lawyers to make their next appearance in Surrey court on May 21 at 9:30 a.m. by video. Meanwhile, Kamalpreet Singh’s next appearance is yet to be determined as he seeks legal representation. Nijjar was a known Sikh activist and president of Guru Nanak Sikh Gurdwara who was killed on June 18, 2023 in the parking lot of the temple. The 45-year-old was found in his truck suffering from gunshot wounds around 8:30 p.m. before succumbing to his injuries at the scene.“We have a thing in Sikhi where there is not hatred. What they’ve done they have to pay for now, but our issue is still India.
“From a public safety standpoint, we don’t know what’s coming next. These three today, maybe a different three a year from now, so we have to be wary of that as well.” Premier David Eby, in a statement issued Friday afternoon, said Nijjar’s murder has shaken the Sikh community in B.C., the larger South Asian community and Canadians across the country.
