The suspects involved in the shooting outside the house of Indian-born Canadian singer and rapper Amrit Pal Singh Dhillon, also known as AP Dhillon, will be “arrested and presented in court today,” media reports have claimed.
Shots were fired outside AP Dhillon’s residence in Vancouver, Canada, in early September leading to two vehicles being burned.
Subsequently, the notorious Indian gang of Lawrence Bishnoi took responsibility for the attack, claiming that their attack was prompted by AP Dhillon casting superstar Salman Khan in a music video.
CCTV footage of the incident later emerged online, leading Canadian police to arrest 25-year-old Indian man Abhijit Kangra from Ontario for his alleged involvement. Another Indian citizen, Vikram Sharma, has also been arrested, and an arrest warrant has been issued.
Canadian police confirmed that “Abhijit Kangra has been charged with setting fire to vehicles using a firearm” and will be arraigned in an Ontario court today.
Lawrence Bishnoi gang is also under investigation for the murders of Indian Punjabi singers Sidhu Moosewala and Baba Siddique and has issued threats against actor Salman Khan.
India media reports say that imprisoned gangster Lawrence Biishnoi and outlaw Rohit Godhra have accepted responsibility for the incident.
An alleged threat made rounds on social media claiming that on the night of September 1, the gang carried out shootings at Victoria Island and Woodbridge, Toronto.
The gangs warned the singer to “stay within his limits, or he will meet a dog’s death.”
The incident is similar is to what happened on April 14, when gunshots were fired outside actor Salman Khan’s Mumbai residence in Bandra. Later, gangster Lawrence Bishnoi’s brother Anmol claimed responsibility for the shooting.
Indian media reports that the authorities in Canada have initiated an investigation to determine the authenticity of the post.
In response to the attack, AP Dhillon wrote on Instagram, “I’m safe, my people are safe. Thank you to everyone who reached out. Your support means everything.”
In November, Bishnoi had taken responsibility for an alleged gunshot at Indian Punjabi singer and musician Gippy Grewal’s home last year in Vancouver’s White Rock neighborhood.
