California, USA – Indo-Canadian gangster Goldy Brar, previously rumored to have been a victim of a fatal shooting in California, has been confirmed alive by the Fresno County Sheriff on Thursday. The sheriff dismissed reports of Brar’s demise as fake news, clarifying the situation regarding the gangster’s well-being.
Initial reports indicating Brar’s death were addressed by Lieutenant William J. Dooley, refuting claims circulated through online platforms and news agencies. He emphasized that the victim of the shooting was not Goldy Brar, dispelling misinformation that had rapidly spread globally.
Speculation surrounding Brar’s involvement in the murder of Punjabi rapper and singer Sidhu Moosewala escalated following reports of his alleged death in California. Contrary to these rumors, Brar was not the individual targeted in the shooting incident at Fairmont and Holt Avenue.
Born in Punjab, India in 1994, Goldy Brar hailed from a family with a background in law enforcement. Implicated in the murder of Sidhu Moosewala in May 2022, Brar faced allegations of ties to the Babbar Khalsa terrorist organization in Canada, branding him a target of Indian authorities.
Having relocated to Canada in 2017 before permanently settling in 2021, Brar’s criminal activities spanned multiple countries. Linked to over 50 murders in Canada, Brar’s criminal network expanded to include operations previously overseen by incarcerated gangster Lawrence Bishnoi.
Notorious for contract killings and extortion operations, Brar’s relocation prompted an Interpol notice in 2022, leading to his reported move to the United States. The intricate web of violence and vengeance within his circle was exemplified by the killing of his cousin, Gurlal Brar, attributed to Bishnoi’s gang in retaliation for an earlier incident.
