A furious row has erupted between Canada and India, after the Canadian Prime Minister announced potential links between the Indian government and the murder of a Sikh activist on Canadian soil.

Justin Trudeau made the allegations in parliament late Tuesday.

The Indian government rejected the allegation as "unsubstantiated" and "absurd" before a mutual expulsion of diplomats.

Canadian political analyst Allan Bonner spoke to Ingrid Hipkiss.
