Because if they did carry out the assassination as state policy, they know that, and if they didn't, they know that, too.

Would you need to review someone else’s evidence to decide if you committed a murder?

Third party evidence is relevant only to the extent that they didn't do it as a matter of state policy but a rogue agent or group might have done it.

I don't get how you folks believe Canada's allegations right off the bat, when there is no factual proof or evidence provided by them.

As long as there is no evidence provided by Canada, India is the victim here, with Canada leveling baseless allegations on her.

That's why I said, India has to confirm Canada's factual evidence first, because it can be any politically motivated bullshit for all we know.

Or the attacks may have been carried out by a rogue agent, with no hand of the Indian government in it. But even then the Canada has jumped the gun and claimed that the killings were state sponsored. In that case too India is the victim with Canada making false accusations against her.

I don't get how you infer support of Canada's allegations from a statement that the Indian government doesn't need to rely on Canada's evidence to determine whether or not they carried out an assassination, since they either know that they did it or know that they didn't do it.

What do you think I meant when I said, "Third party evidence is relevant only to the extent that they didn't do it as a matter of state policy but a rogue agent or group might have done it."

It would be nice if your responses to other people's posts showed some sign that you were actually reading those posts rather than going off on a canned tirade that isn't in any meaningful way relevant to what it is nominally a response to.

Ok, you are right, I will admit my mistake.
