As is well known, most Khalistani extremists and terrorists who have found safe havens in western countries such as Canada, UK, USA, and Australia have entered on some form of “asylum” status.  In other words, at the time of entry, they appeal to the host nation’s compassion by claiming that they were “tortured, persecuted, etc” in India because of their Sikh faith.  Many of them provide “supporting documents” to buttress their claims.  These documents may include letters from political parties such as SAD-Amritsar (headed by Khalistani Simranjit Mann) saying the person is indeed a worker of their party and hence is being probed by Indian police.  Medical letters from “doctors” stating that the person was indeed tortured and was inspected by said doctor after the torture are also used.  Both can be obtained for a fee in Punjab from the appropriate unscrupulous agents.  I have heard that SAD-A asks for Rs. 50,000 to provide a fake letter to support a person’s asylum application. 

Anyway, back to the specific case of Hardeep Singh Nijjar: the Khalistani terrorist and leader of Khalistan Tiger Force who was killed in the parking lot of the Gurudwara in Surrey, BC, of which he was president and jathedaar.  Canadian PM has made much of how Nijjar was a “Canadian citizen.” But Nijjar was born near Jalandhar, Punjab, and lived in India till 1996.  Was he an “Indian” during that time, just as he became “Canadian” later?  Technically, speaking purely of citizenship status, yes he was. However, I think anyone will agree that truly, neither was he Indian before 1997, nor Canadian after: at all times he was a Khalistani, and the interests of the Khalistan movement preceded any other nation’s at all times in his mind.

But the question I wish to shed light on is: How did he enter Canada and gain its citizenship? Well, like most Khalistanis, his story is like a B-movie. Full of lies, deceit, tricks, loopholes and so on. Let’s  begin.

Hardeep Nijjar arrived in Canada in 1997 on a fake passport, identifying him as RAVI SHARMA (!).  In other words, he pretended to be from a community he hated, and targetted—Hindus.  A true man of principle, I should say!  He came with the usual big set of documents claiming that the Indian state had been persecuting him and his family for supporting the Khalistani cause.  In support, he signed several affidavits describing his torture at the hands of Indian police.  A doctor’s certification of his “torture” wounds was also attached.  The refugee and asylum department of Canadian immigration inspected his testimony and certification.  And this is what they said.  That they were ALL LIES.  Specifically they said that, and I am quoting from globalnews.ca, who have seen the original documents, with my emphasis:

… letter he submitted to support his narrative had been fabricated.

The letter was supposedly written by an Indian physician who said he had treated Nijjar after police electrocuted his “intesticals.”

The misspelling of a body part, together with an account that refugee officials found implausible, led them to dismiss him as unreliable and untrustworthy.

“The panel does not believe that the claimant was arrested by the police and that he was tortured by the police,” according to the ruling.

So his first fraudulent attempt at gaining entry into Canada had failed.  But Nijjar, being the unscrupulous scamster that he was, was not going to let go so easily.  So he tried again.  This time using the second most popular trick used by such people: fake marriage.  11 days after his fraudulent “persecuted by India” appeal was rejected, Nijjar “married” a BC woman who duly sponsored him to enter Canada as an immigrant as her “husband.” A marriage of great convenience, one would think.  Nijjar wrote in his appeal that he “did not want to live apart from his wife for even one day.”  What a romantic!   To make his marriage look authetic, he attached “pictures”, “wedding invites” and a picture of him cuddling with his “wife.”

But the Canadian authorities were wise to Nijjar’s shenanigans.  They REJECTED his appeal saying they were not sure this wasn’t a fake marriage, as many Khalistani and Pakistani marriages are, intended only as a means to gain entry into a western country.  And here was the rub: the “wife” herself had entered Canada “sponsored by a different husband” the previous year!  Talk of a comedy of irony. 

So Nijjar was back to square one. He had lied about being persecuted and used a fake name: he had been caught.  He had arranged a fake marriage: he had been caught.

So this scum tried a third time.  The details of this last attempt surely fraudulent like his first two, are not known.  But by 2001, he started identifying himself as a Canadian citizen.  Once he had that safety net, he started his full-time work for Khalistan, travelling to Geneva in 2013, UN headquarters in New York in 2014, and so on.  Indian agencies also believe he travelled to Pakistan sometime around the same period, meeting with Gajinder Singh, the mastermind of the Indian Airlines flight hijacked to Lahore in 1981 (to protest at the arrest of Bhindranwale). Gajinder Singh later called Nijjar “a son” and “committed Khalistani to the core.”

These are some details of the criminal, terrorist, fraudster Hardeep Singh Nijjar that are not widely known, and this article seeks to shed light on these dark dealings of the man whose death is being made by Canada into such an international matter.  Is it becoming of a world leader to make the death of such a third-rate scum and fraudster into a bilateral issue?
