Honestly, I'm surprised it took this long.

"Do we get closure from what happened today? Not really," said Rob Alexander of the Air India Victims’ Family Association. "In the end, your loved one's not coming back. The harm's not coming undone, physically or emotionally or mentally."
...
Alexander and other surviving family members of Air India victims continued to blame Malik for the attack until his unexpected death on Thursday, when he was shot in Surrey's Newton neighbourhood, near 82 Avenue and 128 Street.

"He was acquitted because there were some mistakes during the investigation, the agencies made some mistakes and the courts couldn’t find him guilty," Alexander said.

The investigation into the bombings was long and complex, dragging on for 15 years before charges were laid. Two potential witnesses in the case were also killed.

Malik became an infamous figure within the Sikh community, spending decades under a cloud of suspicion and gossip, though he also had supporters.

I think the worst part of the whole thing was there were people good with what he did.

One would have to wonder what reason these two gentlemen should have for such a crime:

Perhaps others will also be assigning the police with their inquiries in due course?

The family are mystified by the killing:

$1:

Jaspreet Malik said no one in his family has heard the names of the men accused before. His family is at a loss to understand why someone would kill his father, he said.

"I mean, my father was 75 years old. He was not a young person. You know, he was healthy, he was doing well. But I mean, it doesn't make sense."

The police have not spoken to him about motive, although he said he still believes there is no connection between the Air India bombings and his father's death.
