Goldy
Brar,
a
gangster
based
in
Canada,
has
confessed
to
orchestrating
the
murder
of
Sidhu
Moosewala,
a
popular
Punjabi
singer
and
rapper.
This
admission
came
nearly
three
years
after
the
tragic
event.
In
a
BBC
documentary
released
on
Moosewala’s
birth
anniversary,
Brar
took
full
responsibility
for
the
killing
without
showing
any
remorse.
Sidhu
Moosewala
was
tragically
shot
dead
on
May
29,
2022,
in
Jawahar
Ke
village
near
his
hometown
of
Moosa
in
Punjab’s
Mansa
district.
His
murder
occurred
just
one
day
after
the
Punjab
government
reduced
his
security
cover.
The
incident
shocked
fans
and
raised
questions
about
the
circumstances
leading
to
his
death.

Moosewala
Goldy
Brar’s
Justification
In
an
interview
with
the
BBC,
Brar
explained
that
Moosewala’s
actions
left
him
with
no
choice
but
to
kill
him.
“In
his
arrogance,
he
[Moosewala]
made
some
mistakes
that
could
not
be
forgiven,” Brar
stated.
“We
had
no
option
but
to
kill
him.
He
had
to
face
the
consequences
of
his
actions.
It
was
either
him
or
us.
As
simple
as
that.”
The
rivalry
between
Sidhu
Moosewala
and
the
Lawrence
Bishnoi
gang
intensified
after
Moosewala
publicly
supported
a
tournament
organised
by
their
rivals,
the
Bambiha
gang.
This
act
angered
Lawrence
Bishnoi
and
his
associates,
leading
to
threats
against
Moosewala.
Escalation
of
Tensions
Brar
claimed
that
tensions
began
over
a
kabaddi
tournament
in
Punjab
promoted
by
Moosewala.
“That’s
a
village
our
rivals
come
from.
He
was
promoting
our
rivals,” Brar
said.
This
promotion
upset
Lawrence
Bishnoi
and
others,
who
then
threatened
Moosewala.
The
conflict
seemed
resolved
when
Vicky
Vikramjit
Singh
Middukhera
intervened.
However,
it
reignited
when
Middukhera
was
killed
on
August
7,
2021,
in
Mohali.
Brar
suggested
that
Moosewala
was
allegedly
linked
to
Vicky’s
murder.
Unresolved
Disputes
“Everyone
knew
Sidhu’s
role;
even
the
police
and
journalists
investigating
knew,” Brar
mentioned.
He
accused
Moosewala
of
using
political
power
and
resources
to
aid
their
rivals.
Despite
their
pleas
for
legal
action
against
Moosewala,
nothing
happened.
“We
wanted
him
to
face
punishment
for
what
he’d
done,”
Brar
added.
“He
should
have
been
booked;
he
should
have
been
jailed.”
Frustrated
by
inaction,
they
decided
to
take
matters
into
their
own
hands.
The
Aftermath
Sidhu
Moosewala’s
real
name
was
Shubhdeep
Singh
Sidhu.
On
the
day
of
his
murder,
he
travelled
without
police
protection
when
attackers
fired
over
30
bullets
at
him
while
he
sat
in
his
car.
Goldy
Brar
is
associated
with
the
Lawrence
Bishnoi
gang
and
has
been
declared
an
‘individual
terrorist’
by
India’s
National
Investigation
Agency
(NIA).
Despite
this
designation,
he
remains
at
large
as
investigations
continue.
