Canadian police interrogate Hawara, Bheora for 6 hours

Posted in General News by Panthic Weekly Editors on the November 15th, 2008

(Express News Service) 

Chandigarh, November 12 : Officers from the Royal Canadian Mounted Police (RCMP) visited Burail Jail on Wednesday and questioned Jagtar Singh Hawara and Paramjit Singh Bheora of Babbar Khalsa International (BKI) in connection with the mid-air bombing of Air India’s Kanishka flight on June 23, 1985.

The extensive interrogation of the two terrorists convicted for assassinating former Punjab chief minister Beant Singh in 1995 continued for around six hours. The two are facing a death penalty. They were questioned separately.

The names of Hawara and Bheora are among the dozen witnesses on the list prepared by the Canadian police, who reopened the Kanishka bombing case even after a March 2005 verdict by the Supreme Court of British Columbia acquitting two suspects, Ripudaman Singh Malik and Ajaib Singh Bagri.

The two-member Canadian team accompanied by a CBI official reached the Burail Jail around 10.45 am. Jail officials said the team first interrogated Hawara for more than two hours. Bheora was questioned till 4 pm post lunch. The Canadian officers refused to divulge any details regarding the questioning to the media. The jail officials, however, said Hawara was questioned regarding the foreign links of BKI and its members who were active in the UK, USA, Canada and Germany.

According to information, the entire interrogation was videographed.

The bombing of the Toronto-London flight has been widely blamed on Sikh separatists who used British Columbia as a base for their independence campaign.

Members of the RCMP team also met the director-general of the Punjab Police. They had earlier met top officers of the Punjab Police, Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI) and the Chandigarh Police to seek their help in interviewing certain terrorists who are currently lodged in prisons in Chandigarh and Punjab.

In January this year, the RCMP had sought help from the Indian security agencies to interview the 12 “witnesses”, who it said could have information regarding the Kanishka bombing that killed all 329 passengers, most of them Canadian citizens of Indian origin.

    when will the blind canadian govrnment see that the dirty indian government did this to dull down the atrocities that they committed against sikh’s in 1984. if these two veer ji’s are labeled terrorist’s for having beant sh*t despatched with. then i say the indian government and punjab police are guilty of extreme terrorism. let these filthy dogs do what they wish. it does’nt end here, wait till these are infront of dharam raaj. then which hypocritical international treaty or fabricated evidence will they hide behind. there the bear truth will stare them in the face. once my pyare veer ji’s have left this jhoota sansaar their misery will end and shaheed they will be. but when these collaboraters die, their misery will only just have begun.

    I am so proud of my brave brothers who have fought and are still fighting against injustice done by the Brahmins. These Singhs have shown that ‘Sikdki Singhs’ are still alive. These sons of Sahib Sri Guru Gobind Singh ji will always be in CHARDIKALA no matter what happens to them.
