Security Tightened At Kapil Sharma's Mumbai Residence After Cafe Shooting
The security at the Mumbai residence of television superstar Kapil Sharma has been tightened following the shooting incident at his cafe in Canada.
On Friday, personnel from Mumbai police were seen at the actor and comedian's residence in the Oshiwara area of Mumbai. As per sources, Kapil is yet to decide if he will go to the shoot of his Netflix show 'The Great Indian Kapil Show' in Filmcity.
Kapil's cafe in Surrey, British Columbia was under attack as the Babbar Khalsa operative rained bullets. Harjit Singh of the banned terror group Babbar Khalsa claimed responsibility for the attack as he fired 9 bullets at the cafe which was recently inaugurated. As per reports, Harjit said that shooting was in retaliation for comments made about the Nihang Sikhs' attire during a television show hosted by Kapil Sharma.
Fortunately, there were no injuries to anyone at the business during the attack, which happened in the wee hours of Thursday, around 2:00 am local time at Kap's Cafe, which is located at the 8400-block of 120th Street in Surrey.
Such attacks have been on the rise in Canada. Last year in September, a similar shooting incident happened outside the house of the Punjabi synth-pop star A. P. Dhillon in Vancouver.
Later, in October, the Canadian police later arrested a man, and later charged him in connection with recklessly discharging a firearm into a residence as well as setting fire to two vehicles in the 3300 block of Ravenwood Road, Colwood.
In November 2023, jailed gangster, Lawrence Bishnoi claimed responsibility for a reported shooting incident at singer Gippy Grewal's residence in Vancouver, Canada.
The Khalistan separatism has also been on the rise in Canada in the past few years with Khalistani separatists regularly getting into conflicts with the Indian diaspora in Canada.

'Court is a national security threat': US sanctions ICC judges over Netanyahu arrest warrant, sparking global backlash
'The Court is a national security threat that has been an instrument for lawfare against the United States and our close ally Israel,' Rubio said in a statement The United States on Wednesday defiantly expanded efforts to hobble the International Criminal Court over its prosecution of Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, sanctioning a judge from ally France. Secretary of State Marco Rubio also targeted a Canadian judge in a separate case in his latest volley of sanctions against the tribunal in The Hague, which is backed by virtually all other Western democracies as a court of last resort. 'The Court is a national security threat that has been an instrument for lawfare against the United States and our close ally Israel,' Rubio said in a statement, using a term popular with President Donald Trump's supporters. STORY CONTINUES BELOW THIS AD He attacked the court for investigating US and Israeli citizens 'without the consent of either nation.' Among the four people newly slapped with sanctions was Judge Nicolas Guillou of France, who is presiding over a case in which an arrest warrant was issued for Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu. France - whose president, Emmanuel Macron, was in Washington two days earlier - expressed 'dismay' over the action. The sanctions are 'in contradiction to the principle of an independent judiciary,' a foreign ministry spokesman said in Paris. The ICC in its own statement denounced the 'flagrant attack against the independence of an impartial judicial institution.' The court's prosecution alleges Netanyahu is responsible for war crimes and crimes against humanity in Israel's offensive in Gaza including by intentionally targeting civilians and using starvation as a method of war. Netanyahu saluted Rubio for his 'decisive act against a smear campaign of lies against the State of Israel' and the Israeli army. Israel launched the massive offensive in response to an unprecedented attack by Hamas against Israel in which mostly civilians were killed. The ICC has also sought the arrest of former Israeli defense minister Yoav Gallant and Hamas commander Mohammed Deif, who has since been confirmed killed by Israel. STORY CONTINUES BELOW THIS AD Guillou is a veteran jurist who previously participated in trials over Kosovo and Lebanon. He worked for several years in the United States assisting the Justice Department with judicial cooperation during Barack Obama's presidency. Under the sanctions, he will be refused entry to the United States and any assets he has in the world's largest economy will be blocked – measures more often taken against US adversaries than citizens of friendly nations. Defending Israel, exempting Putin Also targeted by the latest US sanctions was a Canadian judge, Kimberly Prost, who was involved in a case that authorized an investigation into alleged crimes committed during the war in Afghanistan, including by US forces. Rubio also slapped sanctions on two deputy prosecutors – Nazhat Shameem Khan of Fiji and Mame Mandiaye Niang of Senegal. The State Department said the two were punished by the United States for supporting 'illegitimate ICC actions against Israel,' including by supporting the arrest warrants against Netanyahu and Gallant. Rubio imposed sanctions on four other ICC judges in June. The Trump administration has roundly rejected the authority of the court, which was set up as a court of last resort when national systems do not allow for justice. STORY CONTINUES BELOW THIS AD Trump on Friday welcomed Russian President Vladimir Putin to Alaska even though Putin faces an ICC arrest warrant, a factor that has stopped him from traveling more widely since he ordered the invasion of Ukraine. The United States, Russia and Israel are among the nations that reject the ICC. Previous president Joe Biden's administration also opposed its action against Israel but withdrew previous sanctions and was open to narrow cooperation with the ICC, including in gathering evidence in Ukraine.

US Sanctions More ICC Judges, Citing Tribunal's Actions Against Israel
The United States on Wednesday imposed sanctions on four more International Criminal Court judges or prosecutors, including those from allies France and Canada, in a new effort to hobble the tribunal, particularly over actions against Israel. "The Court is a national security threat that has been an instrument for lawfare against the United States and our close ally Israel," Secretary of State Marco Rubio said in a statement, using a term popular with President Donald Trump's supporters. Rubio said that the four people targeted by the tribunal based in The Hague had sought to investigate or prosecute nationals from the United States or Israel "without the consent of either nation." The four include Judge Nicolas Guillou of France, who is presiding over a case in which an arrest warrant was issued for Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu. The case was brought forward by the State of Palestine, which is not recognised by Washington but, unlike Israel or the United States, has acceded to the statute that set up the tribunal in The Hague. Guillou, a veteran jurist, had worked for several years in the United States assisting the Justice Department with judicial cooperation during Barack Obama's presidency. Also targeted in the latest US sanctions was a Canadian judge, Kimberly Prost, who was involved in a case that authorised an investigation into alleged crimes committed during the war in Afghanistan, including by US forces. Under the sanctions, the United States will bar entry of the ICC judges to the United States and block any property they have in the world's largest economy -- measures more often taken against US adversaries than individuals from close allies. Rubio also slapped sanctions on two deputy prosecutors -- Nazhat Shameem Khan of Fiji and Mame Mandiaye Niang of Senegal. The State Department said the two were punished by the United States for supporting "illegitimate ICC actions against Israel," including by supporting the arrest warrants against Netanyahu and former defence minister Yoav Gallant. The Trump administration has roundly rejected the authority of the court, which is backed by almost all European democracies and was set up as a court of last resort when national systems do not allow for justice. Trump on Friday welcomed Russian President Vladimir Putin to Alaska even though Putin faces an ICC arrest warrant, a factor that has stopped him from travelling more widely since he ordered the invasion of Ukraine. Rubio slapped sanctions on four other ICC judges in June.
