Indian news outlets went wild on Wednesday with stories about Goldy Brar being shot in the US. While people wait for officials to confirm the news, here is a more in-depth look at the life of the man who is suspected of killing singer Sidhu Moose Wala and was named a terrorist by the Indian government earlier this year.
Goldy Brar Background
Satwinder Singh, also known as Satinderjit Singh and Goldy Brar is from Punjab’s Muktsar and is the son of Shamsher Singh, who used to work as an assistant sub-inspector for the Punjab police. He was said to be connected to a terrorist group called Babbar Khalsa, which had killed several people, smuggled weapons and ammunition, and spread radical ideas.
Murder of Sidhu Moose Wala
A gangster named Goldy Brar admitted in June 2023 that he had killed Indian rap star and Congress politician Sidhu Moose Wala. He said that the murder was done to get back at the people who killed student leader Vicky Middukhera in Punjab in 2022. He told the musician that he was an “egotistical person” who needed to be corrected. Salman Khan was also one of his top ten targets. At the time, Goldy Brar told India Today that Sidhu Moose Wala was self-centred. He abused his money and political power. He needed to learn a lesson, and he got one.

But the Fresno police department denied these claims and made it clear that the person who was shot was not Brar. This event shows how powerful false information can be, especially when it comes to well-known people.
