Canada also recently suspended negotiations for a free trade agreement with India. It gave few details on why, but India cited "certain political developments".

Mr Nijjar is the third prominent Sikh figure to have died unexpectedly in recent months.

On Tuesday, the White House said it was "deeply concerned" about Mr Trudeau's allegations.

Mr Trudeau said in parliament on Monday that he had raised the issue of Mr Najjar's killing with Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi at the recent G20 summit in Delhi.

"Any involvement of a foreign government in the killing of a Canadian citizen on Canadian soil is an unacceptable violation of our sovereignty," he told lawmakers.

"It is contrary to the fundamental rules by which free, open and democratic societies conduct themselves."

Mr Nijjar had been the target of threats. The Canadian Security Intelligence Service was warned as early as last summer that there was likely an assassination plot against the Sikh leader.

Mr Nijjar had been planning a non-binding referendum scheduled for September in Surrey on the question of an independent Sikh state, part of a global series of votes aimed at measuring consensus on the formation of Khalistan.

A similar referendum had taken place last year the city of Brampton, Ontario last year, which is home to around 160,000 Sikhs.

Results of the vote have not yet been released, but he said the turnout - an estimated 100,000 people - was met with anger from the Indian government.

On Monday, Canadian Foreign Minister Melanie Joly told reporters that an Indian diplomat, Pavan Kumar Rai, had been expelled over the case.

According to Canadian sources, the Indian "diplomat" was the station chief of RAW (Indian KGB) in Canada.
