Worldview with Suhasini Haidar | Transnational killings | The legal rights and wrongs | Ep #149
Worldview with Suhasini Haidar - A podcast by The Hindu - Saturdays
This week, we are looking at the legal wrongs and rights of transnational killings- and the sometimes confusing stand of the government. To recap the developments this week: British Newspaper Guardian reported this week that Indian intelligence agents are believed to have orchaestrated up to 20 killings of alleged Khalistani separatist and Jihadist terrorists in Pakistan. In the article the MEA denied the charge, and cited External Affairs Minister S. Jaishankar’s previous statement that “targeted killings is not India’s policy” However, in campaign statements and an interview by Defence Minister Rajnath Singh, the government appeared to be accepting the charges PM Modi also repeated his 2019 slogan of “Ghar mein ghus ke marenge” for terrorists- or “We will kill them in their homes” Read more here.
