Police in B.C. are expected to speak Friday about the "targeted shooting" on Thursday that left Ripudaman Singh Malik, the man who was acquitted in the 1985 Air India terrorist bombings, dead in a neighbourhood of Surrey.

Police were called to the Newton neighbourhood over reports of gunfire. They arrived to find a man who had been shot and later died from his injuries.

Malik and Ajaib Singh Bagri were acquitted in 2005 of mass murder and conspiracy charges related to the pair of Air India bombings that killed 331 people, mostly from the Toronto and Vancouver areas.

The Lower Mainland's Integrated Homicide Investigation Team said Thursday it had yet to determine a motive in Malik's killing, but that "the shooting appears targeted."
