Canadian Pacific Air Lines Flight 60 arrived in Toronto twelve minutes late. The second bag checked in by L. Singh went on Canadian Pacific Air Lines Flight 003 from Vancouver to Tokyo. Moments after the wiretapped conversation, at 01:00 UTC, a man calling himself “Mr. Singh” made reservations for two flights on 22 June: one for “Jaswant Singh” to fly from Vancouver to Toronto on Canadian Pacific Air Lines (CP) Flight 086 and one for “Mohinderbel Singh” to fly from Vancouver to Tokyo on Canadian Pacific Air Lines Flight 003 and connect to Air India Flight 301 to Delhi via Bangkok. On 9 June 1985, a police informer in Hamilton reported that Parmar and Bagri had visited the Malton Sikh Temple, warning the faithful that “it would be unsafe” to fly Air India. At 00:15 UTC (8:15 p.m., 22 June) on 23 June, Air India Flight 181, a Boeing 747-237B named Emperor Kanishka, departed Toronto Pearson International Airport for Montréal-Mirabel International Airport.

The plane arrived in Montréal-Mirabel International Airport at 01:00 UTC (9:00 p.m., 22 June). On 22 June 1985, at 13:30 UTC (6:30 a.m. Reyat went to work on 21 June. On 31 May 1985, Reyat brought his timer, attached to a boombox, into his shop so that his fellow employee at Duncan Auto Marine Electric could help him fix it for a friend, but he returned the radio after it did not work properly. Phone records show someone called from his residence in Duncan to Johal’s number at 10:50 a.m. Phone records show he called Johal at 7:17 p.m. At 20:22 UTC (4:22 p.m. Meanwhile, sometime before 20:22 UTC (1:22 p.m. 1:37 p.m. CP Air Flight 003 to Tokyo with one piece of luggage, which was to be transferred to Air India Flight 301 to Bangkok. He asked agent Jeannie Adams to check his dark brown, hard-sided Samsonite suitcase, and have it transferred to Air India Flight 181 and then to Flight 182 to India.

Reassemble the trap tightly, ensuring all connections are secure, then run water to check if the leak has stopped. Constable Clark-Marlowe later believed there was “ample time for Inderjit Singh Reyat to obtain the batteries at the Auto Marine Electric limited store in Burnaby, incorporate the batteries in the assembly of an explosive device and then have the device transported in a suitcase to the Vancouver airport”. He bought two 12 volt batteries similar to the one used in the explosive device tested in the woods, and they were to fit into a special metal bracket he had brought with him. The Stupendemys’ neck was so long, it had to fold it to one side to fit it in the shell. Add flat rocks on the bottom of the pool and rocks on one side to make a shallow bathing area. ATC asked aircraft in the area to try to contact Air India, to no avail.

It caused explosive decompression and the break-up of the aircraft in mid-air. This was a sign that the aircraft had broken up in mid-air. The aircraft operating the flight was a Boeing 747-237B registered VT-EFO and named Emperor Kanishka. Eight bodies exhibited “flail pattern” injuries, indicating that they had exited the aircraft before it hit the water. Twenty-six bodies showed signs of hypoxia (lack of oxygen). Later tests showed it could also have been an explosion, and later searches turned up remnants of an aluminium “electrical blasting cap”. He was alleged to have stored the suitcase explosives in the basement of a Vancouver school and to have purchased the tickets for the flights on which the bombs were placed. Reyat also bought smokeless gunpowder from a sporting goods store, signing “I. Reyat” on the explosives log. Reyat was seen in the company of another East Indian man at the Auto Marine Electric store in Burnaby, near Parmar’s house, between 10:00 a.m. Parmar’s house to the Horseshoe Bay Ferry Terminal, rode the Nanaimo-bound ferry, and visited Reyat at his home and shop at Auto Marine Electric. The next day, Reyat purchased a large Sanyo component tuner, model FMT 611 K, at Woolworths, and left his name and telephone number on the charge slip, which was later found in a search of his home.
