A 50-year-old Pakistani-Canadian has been sentenced to 14 years in jail for providing material support to the Sikh militant group Khalistan Commando Force, blamed for carrying out assassinations and bombings in India.
Khalid Awan was convicted in 2006 by a US federal jury in Brooklyn for providing financial aid to Khalistan Commando Force (KCF).
In 2007, Awan was given a 14 year prison sentence, which was vacated by the Second US Circuit Court of Appeals. The appeals court had ordered a lower court to consider handing him a longer sentence for a “terrorism enhancement” after prosecutors filed an appeal.
