Goldy Brar's cold confession on Sidhu Moosewala's murder goes viral: ‘He made some mistakes that could not be forgiven'
Sidhu Moosewala - a name that revolutionized the Punjabi music industry for good. The singer, actor, and politician was highly loved for his unfiltered lyrics and catchy music. Everyone around him, including his loved ones, fans, and industry colleagues, always felt he had a long way to go. Tired of too many ads? go ad free now Least did anyone know that his rising popularity would make him prey to a fatal fate. And now, a statement, rather a cold confession from his alleged murderer has come out, where in Canada-based gangster Goldy Brar justified killing Sidhu Moosewala by claiming, "he had to face the consequences of his actions." June 11, 2025, on the occasion of Sidhu Moosewala's birth anniversary, BBC released the much-awaited documentary on the singer. There were several confessions, truths, and more about Sidhu and the Punjabi music industry. According to the documentary, Sidhu Bishnoi and Lawrence Bishnoi shared a bond that dated back a long time. Reportedly, Lawrence used to call Sidhu from jail, telling him he liked his music. Gold Brar's confession on Sidhu Moosewala's murder "In his arrogance, he (Moosewala) made some mistakes that could not be forgiven," Brar told the BBC, before continuing, "We had no option but to kill him. He had to face the consequences of his actions. It was either him or us. As simple as that." What led to the rivalry between Sidhu Moosewala and the Bishnoi gang? Things took an ugly turn between Moosewala and the Bishnoi when Sidhu promoted a tournament organised by the Bambiha gang, the rival of Lawrence's gang. "That's a village our rivals come from. He was promoting our rivals. That's when Lawrence and others were upset with him. They threatened Sidhu and said they wouldn't spare him," Brar said. Tired of too many ads? go ad free now Later, the dispute was resolved by Vicky Middukhera, who was associated with the Bishnoi gang. However, in 2021, when Vicky was gunned down in Mohali, the Bishnoi gang's relationship with Sidhu got strained. Reportedly, the rival gang, Bambiha, took responsibility for killing Middukhera. The police also named Moosewala's friend and sometime manager, Shaganpreet Singh, on the charge sheet. He was a subject of the investigation and was being investigated for providing information and logistical support to the gunmen who put down Vicky. Shaganpreet then fled India and has reportedly been in Australia. Amid all this, Sidhu Moosewala denied any involvement, and even the Punjab police confirmed to BBC that nothing linked the singer to the killing of Vicky. However, Brar had a different take on the whole matter. Accusing Moosewala, he said, "Everyone knew Sidhu's role, the police investigating knew, even the journalists who were investigating knew. Sidhu mixed with politicians and people in power. He was using political power, money, and his resources to help our rivals. We wanted him to face punishment for what he'd done. He should have been booked. He should have been jailed. But nobody listened to our plea." 'When decency falls on deaf ears, it's the gunshot that gets heard' Brar continued, 'So we took it upon ourselves. When decency falls on deaf ears, it's the gunshot that gets heard. Law. Justice. There's no such thing," he says. "Only the powerful can... (obtain) justice, not ordinary people like us," he mentioned. Sidhu Moosewala's death Shubhdeep Singh Sidhu, popularly known as Sidhu Moosewala, was gunned down on May 29, 2022 in Mansa, Punjab. After the killing, Goldy Brar, a member of the infamous Lawrence Bishnoi gang, claimed responsibility. According to the chargesheet, Goldy coordinated with the shooters and plotters, and allegedly arranged weapons, cash, shelter, and everything needed for the shooters.

‘Was either him or us': Goldy Brar on Moose Wala killing
Canada-based gangster Goldy Brar has openly confessed to masterminding the murder of popular Punjabi singer-rapper Sidhu Moose Wala, three years after the killing. The admission was made in a BBC interview, released on Moose Wala's birth anniversary, where Brar offered a cold and unapologetic justification for the crime. Brar, who is associated with the Lawrence Bishnoi gang, stated that Moose Wala's actions had left him with no choice but to orchestrate the murder. 'Moose Wala's actions had left us no option. He crossed lines that he shouldn't have. It was either him or us. He had to face the consequences of his actions,' Brar said in the interview, showing no remorse for the brutal killing. Moose Wala, 28, was shot dead on May 29, 2022, at Jawahar Ke village (near his native Moosa village) in Mansa district, just a day after his security was scaled down. According to Brar, the killing was not motivated by fame or money, but by a long-standing feud. 'If it was for fame, we would have killed anyone famous or rich. It was more difficult to kill someone like him, who was in power,' Brar said. The singer, who was driving his black Mahindra Thar, was ambushed by gunmen after being followed by two vehicles. One vehicle swerved to block his path, and gunmen opened fire, killing Moose Wala on the spot. His body was later discovered in the driver's seat of the vehicle. Brar told BBC that Moose Wala would send 'good morning' and 'good evening' messages to Bishnoi but the two fell out after the singer allegedly promoted a kabaddi tournament organised by Bishnoi's rivals, the Bambiha gang. 'He was promoting people we were at odds with. That didn't sit well with Lawrence and the others,' Brar said, adding that Moose Wala was warned but chose to ignore the threats. The documentary said the first dispute was resolved by Vikramjit Singh Middukhera, popularly known as Vicky, a Youth Akali Dal leader and an associate of Bishnoi. But the enmity exploded when Middukhera was shot dead in broad daylight on August 7, 2021 in Mohali's Sector 71, a killing that Brar suggested was allegedly linked to Moose Wala. 'Everyone knew what part Moose Wala had in that,' Brar said. 'Cops knew it; even journalists knew it. But nobody acted because of his political clout and money. We waited for justice. We waited for someone to take action. When no one did, we acted.' Brar said the main perpetrators of Vicky's killing called, apologised and begged for their lives. 'We neither forgave them nor made any compromise with them and we never will forgive them,' he said. 'Yaa asi rahavange, yaa eh rehnge. Duniya ch kite vi baithe hon, kadi mauka aauga. (Either us or them. Wherever they are sitting in the world, we will get a chance),' Brar added. When the journalist asked him why he did not go through the legal system, Brar dismissed the suggestion. 'Justice doesn't exist for people like us; only the powerful get it. I'm glad and proud of what I have done for my brother. I didn't beg worthless police officers or politicians for help like others,' he said. Goldy Brar, who is reportedly based in Canada, is a prominent member of the Lawrence Bishnoi gang. He has previously publicly taken credit for Moose Wala's murder and has been involved in a range of criminal activities, including extortion and smuggling. Brar was declared a terrorist by India's ministry of home affairs on January 1, 2024, under the Unlawful Activities (Prevention) Act (UAPA) for his alleged involvement in cross-border arms smuggling and his ties to the banned terrorist group Babbar Khalsa International. Despite ongoing investigations, no convictions have been made in connection with the murder, and Brar remains at large.

‘Either him or us': Brar on Moosewala murder
Three years after Popular Punjabi rapper Sidhu Moosewala was gunned down in broad daylight, the man accused of orchestrating the killing, Canada-based gangster Goldy Brar, has openly admitted to murdering the singer in a controversial documentary aired on Wednesday. Brar also said that Moosewala, who had joined the Congress before he was killed in a dramatic shootout in 2022, allegedly first came in contact with gangster Lawrence Bishnoi years before but the relationship soured over a village Kabaddi match where Moosewala allegedly supported a rival team. 'Moosewala's actions had left him and his associates no choice. He (Moosewala) crossed lines which he shouldn't had no option but to kill him. He had to face the consequences of his actions. It was either him or us. As simple as that,' said Brar, who is on the run and is believed to be in Canada. The documentary – The Killing Call – was released by the BBC World Service and its release coincided with the birth anniversary of Shudhdeep Singh Sidhu, popularly known as Sidhu Moosewala. This is the first time that Brar, who is facing terror charges in India and is a known associate of Bishnoi, has spoken in detail about killing Moosewala. He didn't appear on screen for the documentary and spoke over the phone. Moosewala's father, Balkaur Singh Sidhu, criticised the documentary, alleging that the screening could jeopardise the ongoing criminal trial into the murder. 'The documentary builds a false narrative and maligns Moose Wala's image. It has been released online in haste for commercial gains and could jeopardise the ongoing trial of his murder,' Balkaur said. The documentary was originally scheduled for a public screening in Mumbai, but a civil suit was filed in the Mansa court on Tuesday for blocking the screening. However, the court did not issue any order to stop the screening of the documentary. It will hear the matter on June 12. Meanwhile, Balkaur's lawyer said that they have not received any reply from the Maharashtra police. The shootout occurred on May 29, 2022, at Jawaharke village near Moosewala's native village of Musa in Punjab's Mansa singer, driving his black Mahindra Thar, was followed by two vehicles. One of them swerved to block his SUV, after which gunmen opened fire. Multiple bullets were sprayed into the vehicle, killing the 28-year-old artist. Locals later discovered his body slumped in the driver's seat. Police have named 34 people and arrested 29, and booked them for several charges, including murder and conspiracy. The trial in the sensational case is underway, and the next hearing is scheduled to be held on July 4, when the statement of Moosewala's father Balkaur Singh, the complainant in the case and a key witness, will be recorded. A Mansa court framed charges in the case in May last year. Brar told BBC that Moosewala would send 'good morning' and 'good evening' messages to Bishnoi but the two fell out after the singer allegedly promoted a Kabaddi tournament organised by Bishnoi's rivals, the Bambiha gang. 'He was promoting people we were at odds with. That didn't sit well with Lawrence and the others,' Brar said. 'They warned him, told him to stay away, but he didn't.' The documentary said the first dispute was resolved by Vikramjit Singh Middukhera, popularly known as Vicky, a Youth Akali Dal leader and an associate of Bishnoi. But the enmity exploded when Middukhera was shot dead in broad daylight on August 7, 2021 in Mohali's Sector 71, a killing that Brar suggested was allegedly linked to Moosewala. 'Everyone knew what part Sidhu had in that,' Brar said. 'Cops knew it; even journalists knew it. But nobody acted because of his political clout and money. We waited for justice. We waited for someone to take action. When no one did, we acted.' 'He should've faced legal consequences. Jail, not fame,' Brar said. Brar said the main perpetrators of Vicky's killing all called,apologised and begged for their lives. 'We neither forgave them nor made any compromise with them and we never will forgive them,' he said. 'Yaa asi rahavange, yaa eh rehnge. Duniya ch kite vi baithe hon, kadi mauka aauga. (Either us or them. Wherever they are sitting in the world, we will get a chance),' Brar added. When the journalist asked him why he did not go through the legal system, Brar dismissed the suggestion. 'Justice doesn't exist for people like us; only the powerful get it. I'm glad and proud of what I have done for my brother. I didn't beg worthless Police officers or politicians for help like others,' he said. Brar was declared a terrorist by the Union home ministry in 2024 under the Unlawful Activities (Prevention) Act (UAPA), citing his links to cross-border arms smuggling and his association with the banned group Babbar Khalsa International.
