In Nepal's Sunsari district, a communal clash killed one person and injured others, leading to restrictive orders. Toronto police investigated the targeted killing of a 26-year-old Indian-origin woman, while Ontario authorities arrested 19 people in a major drug bust seizing nearly 1.7 tonnes of narcotics.
