一辆停放在加拿大不列颠哥伦比亚省一名亲卡利斯坦分离人士住所内的车辆于周三深夜被纵火焚毁,当地警方认为这起事件可能是“蓄意针对”。
A vehicle parked at the property of a pro-Khalistan separatist was set ablaze late on Wednesday night in Canada's British Columbia province, in an incident local police believe may have been “targeted.”
纵火案发生在萨里市一处住宅内,住户被确认为纳林德·辛格·兰德哈瓦。据称,兰德哈瓦与分裂组织“正义锡克教徒”(SFJ)发起的所谓“卡利斯坦公投”有关联。现场一辆停放的巴士也被喷涂涂鸦破坏。
萨里警局(SPS)一名发言人在现场对当地媒体表示:“这看起来像是一起蓄意针对的事件,我们继续呼吁公众保持警惕。”
The arson occurred at the residence of a man identified as Narinder Singh Randhawa in the town of Surrey. Randhawa is said to be associated with the so-called Khalistan Referendum being organised by the secessionist group Sikhs for Justice (SFJ). A bus parked on the premises was vandalised with graffiti.“It looks like it was a targeted event, and we just continue to ask the public to be vigilant,” a spokesperson for the Surrey Police Service (SPS) told local media at the scene.SFJ's claimsSFJ claimed a Molotov cocktail had been thrown at the vehicle.
SFJ的说法 SFJ声称有人向该车辆投掷了燃烧瓶。事发于午夜前不久,监控录像显示,一名身份不明的人先破坏了巴士,随后投掷燃烧物,导致轿车起火。SFJ呼吁皇家骑警(RCMP)对此事展开调查,并补充称,由于存在对其生命的可信威胁,兰德哈瓦此前曾收到执法部门发出的“警示义务”信函。
CCTV video of the incident, which occurred just before midnight, shows an unidentified individual first vandalising the bus before throwing the incendiary object, which set the car on fire. SFJ called for an investigation into the incident by the Royal Canadian Mounted Police (RCMP), adding that Randhawa had earlier received a ‘duty to warn’ letter from law enforcement due to a credible threat to his life.
警方表态萨里警局在一份声明中表示,警员接到报警赶到住宅后,发现一辆乘用车已被大火吞噬,正被萨里消防局消防员扑灭。与该住宅相关的一辆巴士也被喷漆涂鸦。声明补充道:“据信一名嫌疑人在破坏巴士并纵火焚烧车辆后,步行逃离现场。”
萨里警局重案组侦探呼吁目击者站出来提供线索,并征集事发时在该区域的任何人拍摄的监控录像和行车记录仪视频。
What the police saidIn a statement, SPS said its officers, upon responding to a call and arriving at the residence, observed a fully engulfed passenger vehicle being extinguished by Surrey Fire Service firefighters. A bus associated with the property had also been spray-painted. “It is believed that a suspect fled the area on foot after damaging the bus and setting fire to the vehicle,” the statement added.SPS Major Crime detectives appealed for witnesses to come forward and for CCTV and dashcam footage from anyone in the area at the time.
2023年6月18日,亲卡利斯坦人士哈迪普·辛格·尼贾尔即在萨里市遇害。
Surrey is where pro-Khalistan figure Hardeep Singh Nijjar was killed on June 18, 2023.
三个月后,时任总理贾斯汀·特鲁多在下议院表示,存在“可信指控”,指印度特工与该谋杀案有潜在关联,这起谋杀案导致印度与加拿大关系破裂。印度将这些指控斥为“荒谬”且“居心叵测”。
Three months later, that murder ruptured ties between India and Canada when then Prime Minister Justin Trudeau stated in the House of Commons that there were “credible allegations” of a potential link between Indian agents and the killing. India described those accusations as “absurd” and “motivated.”
自2025年3月马克·卡尼接替特鲁多出任加拿大总理以来,双边关系已得到修复。他于今年2月至3月对印度进行了双边访问,印度总理纳伦德拉·莫迪计划于12月访问加拿大。
Relations have renewed since Mark Carney replaced Trudeau as Canada’s PM in March 2025. He undertook a bilateral visit to India in February-March this year, and Prime Minister Narendra Modi is scheduled to come to Canada in December.
