Ripudaman Singh Malik, 75, who was acquitted in the 1985 Air India terrorist bombings, has been shot to death in Surrey, B.C.
Malik was shot dead by unknown masked assailants just when he was coming out of his Tesla car after parking it outside his business.
A burnt vehicle was found few blocks away from where Malik was shot just before 9.30 AM Canada time.
A retired RCMP deputy commissioner Gary Bass, who was in charge of the terrorism investigation into the 1985 Air India bombing said:
- I just think there's so many potential motives
- It would be speculative to suggest who might be behind the fatal shooting of the Sikh leader.
- He recalled monitoring a seven-hour interview Malik gave to the Air India investigators after his October 2000 arrest.
Ripudaman Singh Malik was founder of the first Khalsa school in Canada and the Khalsa Credit Union Bank.
- He also founded the Satnam Trust.
- Malik was in the process of opening Khalsa college in City Abbotsford and had bought 13 acre land there for this purpose.
Malik had recently visited India and had praised Prime Minister Narendra Modi for his Sikh outreach. His visit was made possible after the government here removed his name from the black list.

 Mystery
air india bombing: On June 23, 1985, Air India Flight 182 from Montreal to London,
carrying luggage loaded in Vancouver, exploded and crashed
into the Atlantic Ocean 240 kilometers off the coast of Ireland.
All 329 people on board were killed- The
$130-million Air India trial – the
longest and most expensive proceedings in Canadian history
– ended in 2005 with the acquittal of Ripudaman Singh
Malik and co-accused Ajaib Singh Bagri. |
95% SIKHs BELIEVE: "Killing of innocent people is not what Sikhism preaches."
- Whatever be the reason. Killing of innocent people is not what Sikhism preaches. Infact our History has all been about caring and helping others. Even our ninth guru Shri Guru Teg Bahadur ji, gave his life for the sake of forced conversion of kashmiri pandit and non-muslims to Islam and there are many others examples like this of which we are proud of.
- According to the reports the four were trying to avenge the assault of Indian government on Sikhs but as 95% Sikhs said whatever the reason this is not acceptable in any means.
