A 65-page dossier from Punjab Police has uncovered that Canada is being utilized as a 'proxy operational base' for orchestrating criminal activities, including extortion, targeted killings, and terrorism aimed at Punjab, India. The report details how criminal elements from various countries exploit Canadian territory as a command center for transnational networks, with ties to Pakistan's Inter-Services Intelligence (ISI) and designated terrorist groups. Key figures named in the dossier include Prabhdeep Singh, Balwinder Singh, and others, who facilitate extortion and intimidation campaigns targeting Indian citizens, particularly within the Punjabi diaspora. The dossier highlights alarming incidents such as the murder of a businessman in Abohar and a chemist in Gurdaspur, driven by extortion demands. The situation has escalated to the point where cities in Canada, like Surrey, have declared emergencies due to rising violence linked to these activities. Despite India's numerous extradition requests and Interpol notices against these operatives, many remain unresolved, allowing them to continue their operations with impunity. The report emphasizes the urgent need for comprehensive countermeasures to combat the sophisticated capabilities of these Canada-based gangsters.
