Sukha Duneke's Murder in Canada: Sukhdul Singh, also known as Sukha Duneke, a notorious gangster who escaped from Punjab to Canada in 2017 using a fake passport, was killed in Winnipeg, Canada.
Sukha Duneke was a high-profile fugitive and wanted terrorist who had been eluding authorities for some years; his name appeared on a list of 41 terrorists and gangsters released by India's National Investigation Agency (NIA), emphasising the gravity of his criminal acts.
Sukhdul, who is originally from Moga, Punjab, abandoned his native state and successfully immigrated to Canada in 2017.
He was thought to have close contacts with Khalistani terrorist Arshdeep Singh, raising worries about his involvement in organised crime and terrorism.
The Punjab Police had identified a group of seven gangsters operating from Canada for an extended period of time some months ago.
Lakhbir Singh alias Landa, Goldie Brar, Charanjit Singh alias Rinku Randhawa, Arshdeep Singh alias Arsh Dala, Ramandeep Singh alias Raman Judge, Gurpinder Singh alias Baba Dalla, and Sukhdul Singh alias Sukha Dunake were among those arrested.
These people were suspected of being involved in a variety of illicit activities in Punjab, aggravating the difficulties faced by transnational criminal networks.
Canada is becoming seen as a safe haven for gangsters and terrorists fleeing India to avoid capture by government officials.
This view was strengthened following the unfortunate death of prominent Punjabi singer Sidhu Moosewala in May of the previous year.
Security services, particularly the Special Cell of the Delhi Police, have expressed increased fear that Canada may become a haven for Khalistani terrorists and criminals engaging in a variety of unlawful operations in India.
It is claimed that criminals in Canada wield enormous power over criminal operations in India, hindering efforts to combat organised crime and terrorism.
Sukha Dunake's horrific death in Canada highlights the complexities and obstacles associated with international efforts to combat organised crime and terrorism.
It also serves as a sharp reminder of the critical necessity for increased international collaboration and intelligence sharing in order to apprehend fugitives and demolish transnational criminal networks.
