A shooting incident has been reported outside the home of Punjabi singer and rapper AP Dhillon in Vancouver, Canada, on Monday.
According to reports, a member of the Lawrence Bishnoi-Rohit Godara gang has taken responsibility for the shooting.
AP Dhillon's house is on Victoria Island in Vancouver.
The gang had reportedly warned AP Dhillon to “stay within his limits, or he will meet a dog's death,” referencing his alleged connections with Bollywood actor Salman Khan, reported India Today.
The shooting incident occurred just weeks after the release of AP Dhillion's music video “Old Money,” which features Salman Khan.
However, the police have not yet issued an official statement on the incident.
The shooting follows a similar firing incident outside Bollywood actor Salman Khan's Galaxy Apartment in Mumbai's Bandra on April 14.
The subsequent arrests in the Galaxy Apartment firing case revealed connections to the Lawrence Bishnoi gang, leading the Mumbai Police to invoke the Maharashtra Control of Organised Crime Act (MCOCA) against all involved in the shooting.
Police had said that gangster Lawrence Bishnoi's brother, Anmol Vishnoi, played a key role in motivating the shooters. After receiving weapons delivery in Panvel on March 15, 2024, Anmol provided the shooters with the target's information, instructing them to carry out the firing at the actor's residence.
The plan was executed as per instructions, during which the shooters received a total of ₹3 lakh for the job.
Audio recovered by Mumbai Police from one of the arrested suspects in the firing incident also matched the voice of Lawrence Bishnoi's brother, Anmol Vishnoi, according to the police.
The Mumbai Crime Branch has filed a 1,735-page chargesheet under the Maharashtra Control of Organised Crime Act (MCOCA) against six arrested accused and three wanted accused, including gang leader Lawrence Bishnoi.
Meanwhile, on the work front, AP Dhillon recently released his highly anticipated new EP ‘The Brownprint.’
Dhillon, renowned for his distinctive blend of Punjabi music and contemporary sounds, shared the release details for his EP on his Instagram handle.
