Mastermind of Moosewala killing Goldy Brar wanted fugitive in Canada

[ad_1]
Chandigarh: Punjab-origin Satinderjit Singh Brar, nicknamed Goldy Brar, the alleged mastermind in the killing of famed singer Sidhu Moosewala and an affiliate of the Lawrence Bishnoi’s gang, has been listed among Canada’s 25 most wanted fugitives in the country.
Wanted by Royal Canadian Mounted Police for murder, Brar’s name figured in the ‘Bolo (Be On the Lookout) Program’ in an updated list released on Monday.
His life-sized cutout among all 25 fugitives has been displayed at Toronto’s Yonge-Dundas Square.

More than $750,000 in rewards were announced on Monday, with several of the 25 most wanted being connected to rewards ranging from $50,000 to $100,000.
However, there is no reward for Goldy Brar, who figured 15th in the list. He reached Canada on a student visa in 2017.
He had allegedly claimed responsibility for the murder of Moosewala and has been on the run since then. He belongs to Punjab’s Muktsar.
As per Interpol, Goldy Brar, 29, is facing murder, criminal conspiracy and supply of illegal firearms.
Already a Red Corner notice, which allows the arrest of a fugitive, has been issued against him.

Punjab Police have blamed Goldy Brar and gangster Lawrence Bishnoi for the killing of Moosewala in Mansa district on May 29 last year.
Goldy Brar, a member of the Bishnoi gang, has been named in the 1,850-page police charge sheet filed in a Mansa court on August 26 last year. It said Moosewala’s killing was carried out in retaliation for the youth Akali leader Middukhera’s murder.
The others who have been named in the charge-sheet include jailed gangsters Bishnoi and Jaggu Bhagwanpuria, Manmohan Mohana, Deepak Tinu, Sandeep Kekda, Ankit Sirsa, Priyavrat Fauji, Sachin Bhiwani, Keshav, Kashish, Manpreet Manu and Jagroop Roopa.
The Special Investigation Team (SIT) led by Anti-Gangster Task Force chief Pramod Ban is probing the killing of Moosewala.
Ban has said Bishnoi, the main conspirator, confessed that the execution planning was hatched in August 2021 to avenge the murder of Middukhera.
In December 2022, Chief Minister Bhagwant Mann claimed that Goldy Brar had been detained by the police in California and that he would “be brought to India”.
Later a purported video of Goldy Brar surfaced in which he claimed that he was not held and nor was he in the US.

[ad_1]
Chandigarh: Seven prison inmates were booked Monday after two men held in connection with the murder of singer Sidhu Moosewala were killed in a gang fight at Goindwal Sahib Central Jail in Punjab’s Tarn Taran, police said.
Another inmate, also allegedly involved in the singer’s murder last year, was injured in the clash Sunday between the Jaggu Bhagwanpuria and the Lawrence Bishnoi gangs.
Both gang leaders are already in jail, booked in connection with the Moosewala murder and other cases.
Iron strips were among the objects used as gang members clashed.
Mandeep Singh alias Toofan of Batala and Manmohan Singh alias Mohna, a resident of Budhlada were killed, police said. The third man, Keshav, was seriously injured.
The FIR named seven jail inmates — Manpreet Singh Bhau, Sachin Bhiwani, Ankit Sirsa, Kashish, Rajinder, Arshad Khan and Malkit Singh.
Five of them, including Ankit and Kashish — who are described as “shooters” — were in jail in connection with the Moosewala murder on May 29 last year.
Mandeep Singh alias Toofan, Manmohan Singh alias Mohna, Keshav, Manpreet Singh, Charanjit Singh and Nirmal Singh had gone to the jail’s block number 1 where the others gangsters were lodged, according to the FIR.

After the fight, Toofan and Mohna were declared brought dead at the Tarn Taran Civil Hospital. Keshav was admitted there.
Police are investigating what triggered the clash between the two groups.
Shubhdeep Singh Sidhu, popularly known as Sidhu Moosewala, was shot dead in Mansa district last year.
As he and two others were driving to Jawahar Ke village, their jeep was intercepted and six men opened fire.
Goldy Brar, who is a member of the Lawrence Bishnoi gang, later claimed responsibility for the murder.
The men booked after Sunday’s clash have been charged under sections 302 (murder) and 307 (attempt to murder) of the Indian Penal Code.

[ad_1]
Chandigarh: Two gangsters, involved in the killing of Punjabi singer Sidhu Moosewala, succumbed to injuries following in a major clash of gangsters in Goindwal jail in Punjab’s Tarn Taran district on Sunday, officials said.
The deceased were identified as Mandeep Singh, alias Toofan, and Mohan Singh, alias Manmohan Singh. A third jail inmate, Keshav, was also critically wounded in the clash. He was admitted to Guru Nanak Dev Hospital in Amritsar.
All three of them have been accused in the Moosewala murder killing.
Toofan was arrested by the anti-gangster task force in September last year. He was also wanted in the killing of another notorious gangster, Ranbir Singh, in a hospital in Amritsar.
Shubhdeep Singh Sidhu, popularly known as Sidhu Moosewala, was shot dead in Punjab’s Mansa district on May 29, 2022.
The clash in jail comes two days after self-styled globe-trotting Sikh preacher Amritpal Singh, who just came to the limelight after returning from Dubai, when his supporters, carrying swords and arms, clashed with the police and forcefully laid a siege on a police station in Ajnala, which led to a scuffle and injuries to several police personnel in Amritsar district.
