Sources close to the investigation also told CBC News that police are actively investigating possible links to three additional murders in Canada, including the shooting death of an 11-year-old boy in Edmonton.

    Asked if there are any Indian “sleeper agents” in Canada, Teboul said it’s a “great question” but he can’t say more about it because it’s “very much at the centre of evidence and ongoing investigations.”
