Sidhu Moosewala murder suspect Goldy Brar alive and free, US authorities verify

Goldy Brar, the main suspect in the killing of Indian rapper Sidhu Moosewala was falsely reported dead in a shooting in the US. The Fresno Police in California has clarified that the man killed in the firing incident wasn’t Brar.Sidhu Moose Wala – renowned for fusing modern hip-hop and classic Punjabi music – was shot dead by unidentified gunmen in May last year in Mansa, Punjab.

“At first, it was said that Brar got shot while he was outside a house with a friend. But Fresno Police said it wasn’t true,” Lieutenant William J. Dooley of the Fresno Police Department stated.

“The confusion came from wrong information on social media and news sites,” Lieutenant Dooley explained. “The person who got shot was actually Satinderjeet Brar, a gangster from Canada with ties to Bollywood and Lawrence Bishnoi’s gang.”

Satinderjeet Brar, wanted for crimes in Canada, was called a terrorist by India’s Ministry of Home Affairs. He once threatened Bollywood star Salman Khan in a TV interview in 2023.

During the interview, Brar also admitted to killing Sidhu Moosewala, saying, “Sidhu Moosewala was an egoistic person. He misused his political and money power. It was necessary to teach him a lesson, and he was taught one.” Brar added, “Bhai Sahab (referring to Lawrence Bishnoi) had stated that he wouldn’t apologize. Baba will show mercy only when he feels merciful.” He also asserted that they have more targets, and they won’t stop until they achieve their goal.
