‘Call Of Duty’-Style Video Emerges Of Shooting Outside AP Dhillon’s House

A video has emerged purportedly showing several rounds being fired at Punjabi singer AP Dhillon’s house in Canada. It also shows two vehicles set on fire during the September 2 incident in Vancouver. The singer, who lives on Victoria Island in Vancouver, was not injured in the shooting.

The notorious Lawrence Bishnoi gang, which is being probed for the high-profile murders of Sidhu Moose Wala and Baba Siddique, had then claimed they carried out the firing since the singer featured actor Salman Khan in a music video.

The video of the firing – which resembled the ‘Call of Duty’ gameplay – appeared to be shot by the gunman as he emptied his magazine.

After the shooting incident in September, the Bishnoi gang issued death threats to Mr Dhillon in a social media post. Gangster Rohit Godara, who claims to be associated with Lawrence Bishnoi, had also said it was behind the firing at a jeweller’s house in Canada.

Mr Dhillon later shared on Instagram that he was safe and thanked his fans for reaching out to him.

The Bishnoi gang had also claimed responsibility for a shooting incident outside singer Gippy Grewal’s house in Canada in November last year.

Shots were also fired outside actor Salman Khan’s Mumbai apartment in April allegedly on instructions from Anmol Bishnoi, the Canada-based brother of Lawrence Bishnoi.
