According to media sources, Sylvestre was the head of Canadian intelligence activities in India. After Trudeau’s accusations, the Indian Ministry of Foreign Affairs summoned Cameron McKay, the Canadian High Commissioner to India, and declared Sylvestre’s expulsion.
On Olivier Sylvestre’s arrest, the Indian government issued the following official statement:
The High Commissioner of Canada to India was summoned today and informed about the decision of the Government of India to expel a senior Canadian diplomat based in India. The concerned diplomat has been asked to leave India within the next five days.
The Indian government continued by saying that Olivier Sylvestre’s expulsion was a result of India’s rising worry about “Canadian diplomats’ interference in our internal matters and their involvement in anti-India activities.”
Following this high-stakes meeting, the Canadian High Commissioner declined to comment on the situation and made a swift exit from the Ministry of External Affairs headquarters in New Delhi. Since then, Olivier has become a hot topic of discussion all over the world, with many people trying to find out more about him. So, here’s what we know about him:
Who is Olivier Sylvestre?
Olivier Sylvestre is a renowned Canadian diplomat. He has been in the news because he was recently expelled from India for his involvement in anti-India activities.
He has been given five days to leave India after being stationed with the Canadian Embassy as the station head of the Canadian Intelligence Service. The move taken by India is a reflection of its rising worries over Canadian diplomats meddling in its domestic affairs and taking part in anti-Indian actions.
It all sparked when Justin Trudeau, the prime minister of Canada, charged the Indian government with involvement in the killing of Hardeep Singh Nijjar, the head of the Khalistan Tiger Force, who was shot and killed in Canada by mysterious assailants.
In response to claims that India was involved in Nijjar’s murder, Melanie Joly, Canada’s foreign minister, announced the expulsion of an Indian diplomat. India viewed this as an intolerable violation of its sovereignty.
