Canada Arrests India’s Most Wanted Gangster and Khalistan Extremist Arsh Dalla

by Antariksh Singh

In a significant law enforcement breakthrough, Canadian authorities have apprehended Arshdeep Singh Gill, infamously known as Arsh Dalla, who has long been on India’s most-wanted list. Declared a terrorist by India’s National Investigation Agency (NIA), Dalla is reputed to be a key associate of Hardeep Singh Nijjar, a prominent pro-Khalistan leader.

The arrest took place following a high-profile investigation into violent activities linked to Dalla. According to reports from CTV News, Dalla faces serious allegations related to a shooting incident in Ontario on October 28. He stands accused of the “intentional discharge” of a firearm during the event, which resulted in two individuals being injured and subsequently hospitalized. The day after the shooting, on October 29, the Halton Regional Police Service (HRPS) detained two suspects associated with the case.

Arsh Dalla’s criminal record is extensive, with numerous charges in India encompassing murder, extortion, and other violent offenses. His activities in Punjab have made him a central figure in the promotion of pro-Khalistan networks, leading the NIA to label him a significant threat involved in terrorist operations.

Tomorrow marks a pivotal moment in the legal proceedings against Dalla, as he is scheduled to appear before a local Canadian court where the charges against him will be formally addressed. This court appearance is a crucial step in the broader efforts to hold him accountable for his alleged crimes on Canadian soil.

The arrest of Arsh Dalla has intensified the ongoing diplomatic dialogue between Canada and India. The Indian government has officially requested the extradition of Dalla, alongside other pro-Khalistan militants residing in Canada, to face justice in India. This demand underscores India’s commitment to dismantling terrorist networks and prosecuting those who contribute to instability.

As the case progresses, it remains to be seen how Canadian courts will respond to India’s extradition requests and the broader implications for international cooperation in combating terrorism. The apprehension of Arsh Dalla is a testament to the collaborative efforts between Canadian law enforcement and international agencies in addressing cross-border criminal activities.
