Police Launch Full-Scale Investigation
Local police, forensic experts, and intelligence teams swiftly responded to the shooting. The area around the café has been cordoned off, and a full-scale investigation is underway. Authorities are currently analyzing surveillance footage and eyewitness statements to identify the shooter and uncover the motive behind the attack.
Laddi Also Accused in High-Profile VHP Leader’s Assassination
Harjeet Singh Laddi is not new to violent acts. He is also the prime suspect in the April 2024 assassination of Vishwa Hindu Parishad (VHP) leader Vikas Prabhakar, also known as Vikas Bagga, who was shot dead in Punjab’s Rupnagar district.
That murder sparked massive outrage and led to increased international scrutiny of Khalistani-linked terror networks operating beyond Indian borders.
Growing Concerns Over Khalistani Terror Threat Overseas
This latest attack has raised serious concerns about the expanding reach of Khalistani extremists, especially their ability to target high-profile Indian personalities abroad. It also casts a shadow over Kapil Sharma’s entry into the hospitality business.
