In a developing story, Indian media outlets are circulating unverified reports of the alleged demise of Satwinder Singh, also known as Goldy Brar, a figure purportedly involved in the murder of Punjabi singer Sidhu Moosewala. Reports suggest Brar was fatally shot in the United States amid escalating tensions within California’s alleged gang warfare.
According to sources cited by News 18, the incident occurred on Tuesday (Apr 30) around 5:30 pm local time at the intersection of Fairmont and Holt Avenue in California. Brar, born in 1994 and originally from Sri Muktsar Sahib in Punjab, was reported to have been residing in Brampton, Canada.
Initial accounts indicate Brar was standing outside his residence when unidentified assailants opened fire before fleeing the scene. Two individuals were reportedly transported to a nearby medical facility, where Brar was pronounced deceased.
Although the Times of India initially reported Brar’s murder, the publication later removed the article from its website. However, other Indian media outlets, citing US sources, allege Brar’s connection to the fatal shooting.
The Dalla Lakhbir gang, led by Arshdeep Singh (known as Arsh Dalla) and Lakhbir Singh Sandhu (alias Landa), has long been a target of law enforcement agencies. Operating primarily from Canadian territory, the group has been implicated in various criminal activities, including those within India.
Brar’s alleged involvement in the murder of Punjabi singer Sidhu Moosewala adds a layer of complexity to the unfolding narrative. Moosewala was fatally shot on May 29, 2022, in Jawaharke village, Mansa district, Punjab. Brar had previously claimed responsibility for Moosewala’s murder.
The India Union Home Ministry had designated Satwinder Singh alias Goldy Brar as a terrorist under the Unlawful Activities Prevention Act, attributing to him the smuggling of high-grade arms, ammunition, and explosives via drones across the border. These materials were allegedly utilized in orchestrating killings and procuring sharpshooters.
The circumstances surrounding Brar’s reported demise and his alleged connections to criminal activities continue to be a subject of intense speculation and investigation. Further details are expected to emerge as authorities delve deeper into the incident.
