Gurpatwant Singh Pannun, founder of Sikhs for Justice (SFJ), has announced a $100,000 reward for the citizen's arrest of Indian High Commissioner Sanjay Verma in Canada. Accusing Verma of diverting focus from the Hardeep Singh Nijjar assassination probe by falsely raising an Air India terror threat, Pannun intensifies tensions between the nations. Pannun, known for threatening Air India passengers, claims Verma's actions hinder the investigation. This development further strains diplomatic relations, already fraught since Trudeau's Khalistani allegations. Pannun's provocative move adds a concerning dimension to the ongoing diplomatic standoff between Canada and India.
