Meanwhile, gangster Goldy Dhillon, who claims to be associated with the Lawrence Bishnoi gang, has claimed responsibility of the attack. In a social media post, he wrote, “Jai Shree Ram. Sat Shree Akaal, Ram Ram to all brothers. The firing that happened today at Kapil Sharma’s Kap’s Café in Surrey has been claimed by Goldy Dhillon, affiliated with the Lawrence Bishnoi gang. We called him, but he did not answer the call, so we had to take action. If he still does not respond, then we will take the next action in Mumbai soon.”Earlier when a firing took place in the cafe on July 10, Babbar Khalsa International (BKI) operative Harjit Singh Laddi, who is wanted in India, had claimed responsibility via a social media post. Along with another individual identified as Toofan Singh, Laddi cited alleged derogatory remarks made by Sharma about Nihang Sikhs as the motive.Kapil Sharma had reopened the café on July 20 with an announcement on Instagram that said, “The lights are on, the coffee is warm and our hearts are full.”The shooting incident comes amid increasing reports of extortion threats targeting South Asian businesses in Surrey, a trend that authorities are now grappling with both offline and online. Interestingly, the firing happened just days after a community lunch was held at Kap’s Café for Surrey’s Mayor Brenda Locke and police service members in an effort to spread the message of safety and solidarity.
