The US Police have denied reports that Goldy Brar, the gangster behind singer Sidhu Moose Wala’s murder, was killed in a shooting incident in California.
Yesterday, two men were reportedly shot after a fight on Fairmont and Holt Avenue in Fresno, California. According to US police, one of them later died in a hospital. Following the incident, many people speculated on social media that the person killed was Goldy Brar, a Canadian gangster. The reports were picked up by some news agencies too.

In response to the reports, the Fresno police department has now stated that they are “untrue”. According to news agency IANS, in response to a query, Lieutenant William J. Dooley said, “If you are inquiring because of the online chatter claiming that the shooting victim is ‘Goldy Brar’, we can confirm that this is absolutely not true.”

Denouncing the reports as “misinformation,” the lieutenant claimed that the police force is inundated with inquiries from all geographic locations.

“We have received inquiries from around the world this morning as a result of misinformation being spread on social media and online news agencies. We are not sure who started this rumour, but it caught on and spread like wildfire. But again, it isn’t true. The victim is definitely not Goldy,” he stated.

The man who was killed in the incident has now been identified as 37-year-old Xavier Galdney, according to some local reports.

Satinderjit Singh alias Goldy Brar is a wanted criminal and was named a terrorist under the Unlawful Activities (Prevention) Act. Interpol issued a Red Corner Notice against him, and a non-bailable warrant has already been issued against him.

Believed to be a key member of the Lawrence Bishnoi gang, Goldy Brar came into the spotlight after he claimed responsibility for Punjabi singer Sidhu Moose Wala’s murder through a Facebook post. On May 29, 2022, Sidhu Moose Wala was shot and killed in his car near his village in the Mansa district of Punjab.
