US Secretary of State Antony Blinken has said that US is deeply concerned about the allegations made by Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau about the Indian government's involvement in the killing of Khalistani terrorist Hardeep Singh Nijjar.

Addressing a press conference in New York on Friday, Blinken said that the US wants to see accountability and called it important that the investigation runs its course and leads to the result.

"We want to see accountability. And it's important that the investigation run its course and lead to that result," Blinken told reporters in New York, where he was taking part in the UN General Assembly.

The White House has spoken of its concerns over the allegations, but Blinken is the most senior U.S. official to have commented thus far.
