Jaswinder Kaur, better known as Jassi, had fallen in love with Sukhwinder Singh Mithu, an autorickshaw driver, after she visited Punjab. She was the resident of Maple Ridge, British Columbia. The two of them got married against the wishes of Jassi's affluent family in 1999.
Eighteen years after the ‘dishonour killing’ of Canada-born Jaswinder Kaur Sidhu, her mother and uncle, accused of the murder, have been extradited to India by Canadian authorities, police said today.
A team of Punjab Police has been dispatched to Delhi to bring the two accused to the state for presenting them in a court in Sangrur, they said.
