Last June, the leader of a Sikh temple outside Vancouver stood before his congregation and delivered a dark prediction: agents of the Indian government were plotting to kill him. The leader, Hardeep Singh Nijjar, believed Indian spies were targeting him because he advocated for a separate state for Sikhs in India. He urged his followers to continue his activism after he was gone.   When Hardeep left the temple that evening, a white sedan blocked his path. Two armed men jumped out of the car, and shot him multiple times at close range. Still, some outside observers thought it was far-fetched that India would risk its diplomatic and economic relationships with the United States and Canada to silence an activist like Nijjar. But since his death, evidence supporting his darkest predictions has continued to emerge. On this episode of Fault Lines: India’s alleged assassination plots in North America—and the global rise in transnational repression.

Over the past 20 years, religious organisations from the Catholic Church to Jehovah’s Witnesses have had a reckoning with cases of child sexual abuse. Many states have tried to tackle the abuse by making clergy mandatory reporters of abuse to officials, just like doctors, therapists and teachers are. However, more than 30 states in the United States do not require church officials to report knowledge or allegations of child abuse if the information is deemed privileged, specifically coming from confession or counselling. It means that abuse can all too often be hidden - and survivors are left without recourse or justice. Fault Lines investigates how state laws in the US can lead to child sexual abuse in religious communities going unpunished.
