In a shocking incident that has rattled the Punjabi music industry and the Indian diaspora in Canada, a well-known Punjabi singer was brutally shot by members of the infamous Rohit Godara gang. The brazen attack in Surrey, British Columbia, underscores the escalating gang violence plaguing the community and the growing threats against Punjabi artists.
The Attack: Broad Daylight Ambush
The victim—whose identity is withheld for safety—was ambushed outside a recording studio by masked assailants. Witnesses reported multiple gunshots before the attackers fled in a stolen vehicle. The singer is currently in critical but stable condition at a nearby hospital.
Police confirm the assault bears the signature style of the Rohit Godara gang, a notorious syndicate linked to extortion, drug trafficking, and targeted killings in Punjab and Canada.
Gang’s Menacing Warning Goes Viral
Shortly after the shooting, a video surfaced online, allegedly from the Rohit Godara gang, claiming responsibility. A masked figure issued a chilling warning:
“This is just the beginning. Anyone opposing us will face the same fate.”
The video, now viral, has intensified fears among Punjabi musicians and industry insiders in Canada and India.
Rohit Godara Gang’s Expanding Criminal Empire
The gang has increasingly targeted Punjabi celebrities, especially those tied to rivals or refusing extortion demands. This attack follows another high-profile murder of a singer in Punjab earlier this year, also linked to Godara’s network.
Canadian authorities face mounting pressure to dismantle these transnational gangs, but their cross-border operations complicate investigations.
Outrage and Demands for Justice
The attack has sparked outrage, with calls for stronger action against gang violence:
- Punjabi music industry leaders condemn the attack as an assault on cultural expression.
- Punjab CM Bhagwant Mann urges international collaboration to curb gang activities.
- Canadian officials face demands for enhanced artist protection.
What Happens Next?
Will this attack finally trigger decisive action against the Rohit Godara gang, or will it embolden further violence? The Punjabi entertainment world waits anxiously for answers.
