Sidhu Moose Wala’s Friends Involved In His Murder, Claims Singer’s Father

Punjabi singer Sidhu Moose Wala’s father on Sunday said his son could not decipher that those who were claiming to be his friends would become his enemy one day, and added that he will soon reveal their names.

Shubhdeep Singh Sidhu, popularly known as Sidhu Moose Wala, was shot dead in Punjab’s Mansa district on May 29. Addressing a gathering in Mansa, Moose Wala’s father Balkaur Singh said his son made his name worldwide with his singing.

“Some black sheep became enemies of his career,” said Mr Singh.

“It was his misfortune that people whom he met at the beginning (of his career) were not the right persons. He could not realize that those who were claiming to be his brothers now would become his enemy tomorrow,” said Mr Singh.

“I will take their names. Let the time come. It is a matter of a few days. I will make everything clear about who did what,” he said. Canada-based Goldy Brar, who is a member of the Lawrence-Bishnoi gang, had claimed the responsibility of the Moosewala’s murder.

Police said Sidhu Moose Wala’s killing was in retaliation of youth Akali leader Vicky Middukhera’s murder that took place last year. The name of Shaganpreet, who was said to be the singer’s manager, had figured in the murder of Middukhera’s murder. On Shaganpreet, Moose Wala’s father said his son came in contact with him a year back.

“Like you (gathering) used to come to him for clicking pictures, Shaganpreet also came to him,” said Mr Singh. He said that Shaganpreet was not the manager of Moosewala.

Out of six shooters who killed Sidhu Moose Wala, three have been arrested, two have been neutralized while one is still on the run.
