A newly opened café in Surrey, British Columbia, co-owned by comedian Kapil Sharma and his wife Ginni Chatrath, was recently attacked in what authorities suspect was a targeted strike. The incident is being linked to the Laddi gang, which is believed to have ties to the banned Khalistani terrorist group Babbar Khalsa International (BKI).
The café, called Kap's Caffe, had only just hosted its soft opening and was gaining attention for its charming pink-and-white décor, floral-themed interiors, and a menu featuring artisan coffee and desserts. However, the celebratory mood was short-lived, as the establishment was vandalised late Sunday night.
While no injuries were reported, the property did sustain damages in the attack.

Laddi is wanted in India for multiple terror-related offences and is alleged to be the mastermind behind several recent attacks on Hindu leaders and pro-India figures.
Laddi, along with associate Kulbeer Singh alias Sidhu, is accused of planning and supplying weapons for the April 13, 2024 assassination of Vishwa Hindu Parishad (VHP) leader Prabhakar in Nangal, Rupnagar district, Punjab. The duo is also under investigation for financing terror operations and recruiting ground-level operatives for targeted killings.
The National Investigation Agency (NIA) has declared a ₹10 lakh reward for information leading to Laddi's arrest. In 2023, Punjab Police uncovered a BKI cell in Ludhiana connected to Laddi and another BKI handler. Four of their associates were arrested for petrol-bombing the homes of Shiv Sena leaders, further cementing Laddi's role in cross-border extremism.

South park it there, you can't get free-er
Say what you will about the US, but there's something that is awesome about its idea of freedom: Trey Parker and Matt Stone's animated sitcom South Park 's merciless roast of the American president would be unthinkable in uncle-aunty countries. Even as Trump is seething at depictions of him in bed with Satan and an AI-generated sequence of him getting butt naked in a desert, no one has been tossed into a dungeon. At worst, South Park's parent company Paramount, which signed a $1.5 bn 5-year deal with the creators of the subversive show, will cut its losses after this expensive joke in the form of its new season opener, 'Sermon on the Mount'.The latest episode didn't just poke the presidential bear - it dressed him as a toddler, and sent him on a parade of absurdity so brutal it made stand-up satire look like polite gossip. And, yet, no censorship, no exile, no mysterious disappearance of Parker and Stone. Just outrage, applause, and thoughts about how fat the silver lining still is even in India-emulating Trumpland. You've got to admire a country where mockery isn't just tolerated, it's monetised. It's a celebration of critique and creative combustion. South Park is America's sweaty, profane love letter to liberty - proof that in a truly democratic society, even the most powerful person is fair game for fart jokes and genital takedowns.

IND vs ENG: Ben Stokes trolled hilariously after India reject England's offer for draw; memes break internet
England skipper Ben Stokes (Photo by) The final day of the fourth Test between India and England at Old Trafford delivered an unexpected twist, and the internet loved every bit of it. With India cruising at 386/4, leading by 75 runs, England skipper Ben Stokes casually walked up to Ravindra Jadeja and Washington Sundar and offered a handshake to draw the match. But instead of wrapping things up, the Indian duo politely declined, and social media erupted. At that point, Jadeja was on 89 not out and Sundar on 80 not out, both eyeing well-deserved centuries after dragging India from 0/2 to safety with a 150-run unbeaten partnership. Go Beyond The Boundary with our YouTube channel. SUBSCRIBE NOW! Their refusal to end the game early caught Stokes visibly off-guard. He shook his head, muttered a few words, and walked away, bemused and slightly miffed. Fans online instantly picked up on the awkwardness. Memes featuring Stokes's confused expression. Stokes responded by bringing Harry Brook on to bowl, and Jadeja, in poetic fashion, lofted him for six to complete his hundred, his third in Tests. It was cricketing theatre, wrapped in grace, grit, and a bit of petty spice. Sundar also completed his maiden Test ton before the match was eventually drawn. Post-match, Shubman Gill backed the decision: 'It was up to the boys, but we felt they batted brilliantly. Both of them were in their 90s, and we believed they deserved to get to their centuries.' For a team that's drawn just two of 40 Tests under the Stokes-McCullum regime, this was unfamiliar territory and perhaps why emotions boiled over. But for fans, it was vintage Test cricket : dramatic, tense, and unexpectedly hilarious. All eyes now turn to the series decider at The Oval.
