Toronto: Canadian law enforcement has said the investigation into the bombing of Air India flight 182, the Kanishka, by Khalistani terrorists on June 23, 1985 is “active and ongoing”.

The bombing of Air India Flight 182 near Ireland's coast, which killed 329 passengers and crew, was the deadliest aviation terrorism incident until the September 11, 2001 attacks in the United States.

In 1985, an Air India 747 flying from Montreal, Canada to Delhi was blown up in mid-flight by Khalistani extremists. All 331 passengers were killed, most were of Indian origin.
