"Can someone please take the phone away from him,"

Some argue that even if the family proves lineage to Mayankutty Keyi, without ownership documents, they're unlikely to gain anything.For Muhammed Shihad, a Kannur resident who has co-authored a book on the history of the Keyi and Arakkal families, though, the dispute is not just about the money - but about honouring the family's roots.

"If they don't get the compensation, it would be worth openly recognising the family's and the region's connection to this noble act."Mark Carney has invited his Indian counterpart Narendra Modi to the upcoming G7 summit in Alberta, marking a shift in Canada-India relations that had soured in recent years.The two spoke over the phone on Friday, during which the Canadian prime minister extended the invite to Modi and agreed to stay in contact, according to a readout released by Carney's office.

Modi confirmed the invite and thanked Carney in a post on X, adding that he looked forward to meeting him at the summit in mid-June.Relations between the two countries have been strained since former PM Justin Trudeau accused India of carrying out the killing of a Sikh separatist leader on Canadian soil.

Hardeep Singh Nijjar was shot and killed outside a Sikh temple he led in Surrey, British Columbia in June 2023.

He had been a vocal advocate for the creation of a separate state for Sikhs in India, called Khalistan. India has accused him of being a terrorist and of leading a militant separatist group - accusations his supporters call "unfounded".Cheshire Police praised the complainants for their bravery and described Clark as a sexual predator who despite being in a position of trust, continued his crimes to "satisfy his own warped sexual desires".

Sentencing him to eight years, Judge Simon Berkson said his crimes were "a parent's worst nightmare" and showed "clear grooming of young girls".He said it was "well planned, sophisticated, criminal behaviour".

As a result he said Clark had "lost everything" including his job, marriage and unsupervised access to his own young children.He will face an extended four years on licence at the end of his sentence.
