  • Surrey RCMP head calling Surrey shooting a 'disgusting attack'

The head of Surrey's R-C-M-P says the murder of the president of a Sikh gurdwara was a disgusting attack in a house of worship. 

Hardeep Singh Nijjar was alone in his pickup truck when he was shot and killed on the temple grounds. 

R-C-M-P assistant commissioner Brian Edwards says anyone with knowledge of the murder should come forward as witnesses. 

Nijjar was accused of terrorism and conspiracy to murder in India, but there's no indication yet of a motive for the murder.
