Kapil Sharma Shares First Post After Cafe Attack In Canada, Arrives In Dubai For Shoot

On July 10, the newly opened cafe owned by comedian Kapil Sharma and his wife, Ginni Chatrath, was attacked. Several shots were fired at Kaps Caffe, which had recently celebrated a soft opening and gained attention for its elegant pink-and-white decor, floral accents, and a menu featuring artisan coffee and desserts. What began as a celebration quickly turned chaotic as the establishment was vandalised. Fortunately, no injuries were reported, but the property did suffer damage. Authorities suspect that the attack was a targeted strike by the Laddi gang, associated with the banned Khalistani terrorist group Babbar Khalsa International (BKI). Laddi is wanted in India for numerous terror-related offences and is believed to be the mastermind behind several recent attacks on Hindu leaders and pro-India individuals. As per a TellyChakkar report, Kapil was reportedly questioned by the Mumbai Police after the firing incident at his cafe in Canada. While Kapil Sharma has not yet issued a statement regarding the incident, the Kap's Caffe team released a statement on Friday. It said, 'We opened Kap's Caffe with hopes of bringing warmth, community, and joy through delicious coffee and friendly conversation. To have violence intersect with that dream is heartbreaking. We are processing this shock, but we are not giving up." The statement also thanked patrons for their support during this difficult time. 'Your kind words, prayers, and memories shared via DM mean more than you know. This café exists because of your belief in what we're building together," it added. Concluding on a hopeful note, the café wrote, 'Let's stand firm against violence and ensure Kap's Caffe remains a place of warmth and community."

Surrey mayor's call to Meta, X, TikTok after shooting at Kap's Cafe: ‘Don't let criminals weaponise you'

The incident occurred during the intervening night of Wednesday and Thursday at Kap's Café that opened last weekend in Surrey, British Columbia. Unverified videos circulating on social media show armed individuals firing at the establishment. Her call came after a shooting at TV host Kapil Sharma's newly opened café in Canada, followed by the disturbing circulation of the attack video online. New Delhi: Surrey Mayor Brenda Locke has slammed major social media platforms, including Meta, X (formerly Twitter), TikTok, and others, to take immediate and decisive action against the online glorification of violent crime. 'A recent shooting at a local business was brazenly filmed and posted online by an individual claiming responsibility. This act was meant not only to harm its direct victim but to terrorize our whole community,' Mayor Locke said in a public statement 11 July. Shortly after the attack, a man identifying himself as Harjit Singh, alias Laddi, reportedly claimed responsibility for the shooting in a Facebook post. Laddi is a known member of the banned terrorist organisation Babbar Khalsa International (BKI) and is listed among India's most wanted individuals by the National Investigation Agency (NIA). 'A recent shooting at a local business was brazenly filmed and posted online by an individual claiming responsibility. This act was meant not only to harm its direct victim but to terrorize our whole community. That fear is real,' said Locke. The Surrey mayor also mentioned that she visited the scene after the incident and spoke with employees and people in the area. 'I felt it first-hand last night while visiting Kap's Cafe and nearby businesses and speaking with employees and customers who now worry about their safety. A place that should have been filled with buzz and excitement about the establishment was instead overtaken by fear and unease,' she added in her public statement. Role of social media Mayor Locke also criticised the role of tech platforms in allowing violent content to flourish: 'It is intolerable that legitimate news content is sometimes blocked, while videos glorifying violent crime circulate freely,' she said. In a strong message, she called on tech companies to do more: 'I am calling on Meta, X, TikTok, and other social platforms to stop allowing violent criminals to weaponize your networks against the people of Surrey.' In the purported post Thursday, Laddi while claiming responsibility cited some remarks made in 'The Kapil Sharma Show', as the motive behind the attack. The post mentions that a character in the show had made certain remarks on Nihang Sikhs. The post claims that Laddi tried contacting Sharma's manager about it but the calls went unanswered. After the incident, Surrey Police issued a statement that no one at the business was injured, and that SPS officers gathered evidence and canvassed the area for witnesses and surveillance footage. Mayor Locke outlined specific and urgent steps that social media companies must take to immediately stop the promotion of violent content. She emphasised the need to permanently ban accounts linked to criminal organizations, promptly remove all content that promotes or glorifies violent crime, and implement real-time detection tools to prevent dangerous videos from going viral. 'These steps are neither optional nor aspirational; they are essential,' she said.
