A man from Punjab has been arrested in connection with the low-intensity blast at Bollywood rapper and singer Badshah's bar and club in Chandigarh in November last year, the Delhi Police said Wednesday. The accused, identified as Deepak, 31, a resident of Faridkot in Punjab, was arrested by a team from the Special Cell's Counter-Intelligence Unit, officers said, adding that he is currently being questioned. No one was injured in the blast which occurred outside Badshah's Bar and Club, located in Chandigarh's Sector 26, on November 26, 2024, but hours later, gangster Goldy Brar claimed responsibility for the incident, purportedly through a social media post.
