No reports on the deaths of Harjinder Jinda or the other individual named in the Information Request could be found among the sources consulted by the Research Directorate.

However, two sources report that Harjinder Singh Jinda was executed in 1992 for killing General A.S. Vaidya (The Times of India 24 Feb. 2003; The Tribune 10 Oct. 2001).

This Response was prepared after researching publicly accessible information currently available to the Research Directorate within time constraints. This Response is not, and does not purport to be, conclusive as to the merit of any particular claim for refugee protection. Please find below the list of additional sources consulted in researching this Information Request.
