ACI Flight 182

Investigation into the Kanishka Bombing 1985

The arrest of three Sikh terrorists in Vancouver, Canada for their alleged role in the bombing of an Air India (AI) flight on June 23, 1985 marks a crucial stage in the 15-year investigation carried out by the Canadian authorities in cooperation with the Indian government into the incident. The AI flight 182 Kanishka on June 23, 1985 from Toronto with a brief stopover at Montreal was en route to New Delhi when it exploded off, the coast of Ireland while it was preparing to land at the Heathrow airport. The mid-air explosion which killed all the 329 people on board is widely considered to be one of the world's deadliest acts of terrorism and civilian aviation sabotage. Investigations reveal that it was one of two related bomb explosions allegedly carried out by Sikh terrorists. The other explosion occurred at the Narita airport in Tokyo killing two people.
Immediately after the 1985 bombing of the Kanishka, the Indian government had instituted the Justice B.N Kirpal Commission of Inquiry. The main agenda of the Kirpal Commission was to explore whether AI flight 182 had crashed due to an explosion, a machine failure, or human error. It arrived at a clear conclusion that the AI flight had exploded in mid-air and had fallen into the ocean because of a bomb which had planted in Canada. The Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI), which had assisted the RCMP in its probe also constituted a investigation process. The CBI findings established that the bombing was the handiwork of Babbar Khalsa International (BKI), a terrorist outfit in Punjab and the mastermind was Talwinder Singh Parmar, a frontranking leader of the same outfit. Since the main area of investigation is in Canada, the CBI was largely associated in collecting information, documents and evidence sought by the RCMP.

[iSikkh]

They accused Babbar Khalsa

Where is the evidence?

No where

[iSikkh]

@mintu00001

Firstly, if you call an unofficial quote "evidence", then your a fool.

Secondly, no true Sikh wants Khalistan by shedding innocent blood.

Finally, plenty of people in India want Khalistan.

I'm just laying the facts on the table.

So sad

[abishak]

this was a very tragic accident that no one will forget . however, we need to stop blaming each other. what`s done is done. we are all one now.. no Sikh is a member of any terrorist group . Sikh community is an important part of India and will always be.

@mintu00001 Why would i have to wash my hands of blood?

If someone is proven to have commited a crime then they are guilty... the thing is, they simply have no evidence.

[mintu00001]

@iSikkh don't try to wash your hands off the blood of thousands of innocent people. And I come from India. there are a handful of people there who may be inteested in khalistan. If peacefully, yes, you may get lot's more support, of people like me even.

@iSikkh didnt they say in calgary gurudwara that planes would fall from the sky? You kill innocents and say you fight for khalistan? we don't want khalistan by shedding innocent blood. AND NOBODY IN INDIA WANTS IT TOO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[amarpreets29]

As a sikh,I am ashamed of khalistani terrorist. They are no different from taliban and they bring shame to my great religion

[sarabification]

I think they shouldn't have taken such a drastic step .

It may spoil image of Sikhs .

But then again , Who's responsible ?

INDIAN GOVT !

Sikhs were denied their rights and still are . Sikhs are still not considered as distinct  religion in indian constitution.

But I think this was too much of a drastic step
