Ripudaman Singh Malik, who was acquitted in the 1985 Air India terrorist bombing, has been shot and killed, Global News has learned from his family. RCMP were called to the Newton neighbourhood of Surrey, B.C., over reports of gunfire around 9:30 a.m. on Thursday, and arrived to find a man suffering from gunshot wounds. “The man was provided first aid by attending officers until Emergency Health Services took over his care,” Const. Sarbjit Sangha said in a news release. “The injured man succumbed to his injuries on scene.” Malik and Ajaib Singh Bagri were acquitted in 2005 of mass murder and conspiracy charges related to the pair of Air India bombings that killed 331 people, mostly from the Toronto and Vancouver areas. Malik was in his mid-70s and is the head of Khalsa schools across Canada. Investigators believe the shooting was targeted. For more info, please go to
