Goldy Brar’s Cold Admission Sparks Outrage as Punjab Gang Wars Intensify in 2025
A shocking revelation earlier in January sparked widespread outrage in India: Goldy Brar, a Canada-based gangster affiliated with the Lawrence Bishnoi gang, brazenly claimed responsibility for plotting to kill Punjabi singer Sidhu Moosewala, branding it "gang justice." The chilling confession, which spread like wildfire after a telephone call made rounds, left Moosewala's family devastated and sparked intense scrutiny.
As investigations uncovered a complex web of cross-border conspiracies, the case exposed the brutal gang wars between the Bishnoi and Bambiha factions, raising pressing questions about Canada's stance on fugitives sheltering on its soil. With each new development, the pursuit of justice for Moosewala seems to grow more elusive.
The Confession: Brar's Callous Admission and Police Intercepts
In January 2025, Punjab Police intercepted a call placed between Brar and an associate where Brar mocked the killing of Moosewala and crudely referred to it as a clean job. Intelligence sources indicate the killing was revenge for the 2024 killing of Vikramjeet Singh Middukhera, who was a member of the Bambiha gang.
- Allegations suggest that Brar, operating out of Canada, orchestrated the hit with the shooters in Uttar Pradesh.
- The police leaked intercepts from police surveillance have only intensified public outrage.
- Brar's protection in Canada remains intact despite India formally pursuing extraditions.
The Rival Gang War - Bishnoi vs. Bambiha - A Bloody History
Moosewala's killing was not spontaneous; rather, it was the culmination of a ten-year complicated feud between opposing gangs.
Key Findings from Punjab Police Reports:
- The Bishnoi gang (Lawrence Bishnoi) ordered this hit in part to minimize the Bambiha gang's influence and footprint in Punjab.
- In recent years, gang violence has claimed over 50 lives, including influential figures.
- Violence attracts profit through extortion, drug smuggling, high amounts of drugs, and political influence.
Police Investigation: Why Is Justice Delayed
There are still many conspirators at large as the arrests continue, including the brother of Lawrence's brother, Anmol Bishnoi.
Essential Obstacles:
- Extradition delays: The Canadian authorities have not acted on India's request to deport Brar.
- Hawala funding: An individual suspect, Brar, has been linked to more than US$5 million in funding for his operation in 2024-25. As a result, due to unresolved financial trails, authorities continue to struggle in tracing financial links, despite the available funding of US$5 million.
- Political Interference: There are allegations of gang-political associations that have stalled legal prosecution.
Public Fury and Demands for Action
Moosewala's murder has become a signifier for the law-and-order crisis facing Punjab, and many how stage protests and developments: 2025 find themselves embroiled in questions of what now?
- Mass rallies across Punjab are calling for new and tougher legislation against gangsters.
- Punjab Police's Operation Silence (2025) dismantled 30-plus known safe houses for gangs.
- Diplomatic tensions rise between Canada and India over hiding fugitives.
Cycle of Violence Perpetual
Goldy Brar's confession has intensified Punjab's deepest fears that gang wars will persist as long as the killers remain free. Justice feels like a distant dream for Moosewala's grieving parents and the countless others living in constant fear. While politicians engage in debates and bureaucrats file reports, real families are mourning their sons who have fallen victim to this gang warfare.
The world is watching the ongoing bloodshed in Punjab—will the authorities take action before another life is lost? Time is running out, and with each passing day, hope dims a little more.
