WEST VANCOUVER – The mystery of whether Punjabi film and music star Gippy Grewal’s house was shot up allegedly by goons of imprisoned dreaded gangster Lawrence Bishnoi has been solved by DESIBUZZCanada after West Vancouver police media spokesperson Mark McLean confirmed to our editor R. Paul Dhillon that in fact there was a targeted shooting at a house in West Vancouver.
Although McLean said due to privacy reasons he cannot say specifically say it was Grewal family’s newly bought swanky mansion in the city by the sea that was fired upon but he confirmed that shooters targeted the house’s garage and car, which were both hit by gunfire. And this was the description that a rattled Gippy Grewal himself gave when he spoke to the media in India.
“I can confirm that a house in West Vancouver was targeted with gunfire in the early morning of Saturday, November 25 and the bullets hit the garage and car but no one was hurt,” McLean told DESIBUZZCanada. “We don’t think the shooting is dangerous to the public as it was a targeted event.”
There were some reports that shooting didn’t take place with one loud mouth tik-toker putting up a multi thousand dollar reward that it was fake but DESIBUZZCanada has proven him at least wrong.
DESIBUZZCanada asked McLean whether they have suspects in the shooting at the Grewal home and he said the investigation is very active and West Vancouver police are pursuing all leads including trying to get video and any surveillance of the shooters’ vehicle.
“We are taking the shooting very seriously and our detectives are actively pursuing the investigation,” McLean told DESIBUZZCanada.
Grewal who has a young family of three boys and his wife who occupy the house is obviously stressed out for their safety and seemed shaken as he told media that his house was shot up, going as far as to say that he was not Bollywood superstar Salman Khan’s friend and that producers had simply hired to promote his latest release Maujaan Hi Maujaan, which failed badly at the box office after record breaking success of his series Carry On Jatta 3 in the summer which was promoted by another superstar Aamir Khan.
Bishnoi has also targeted Salma Khan for death due to him killing that sacred deer and his new friendship with Grewal is the reason Bishnoi gave for targeting Grewal in a safe haven like West Vancouver, Canada.
The federal Liberals flood gate of students from India has also brought criminals from India to create foreign crime syndicate to target people for extortion and death as was the case last week of a robbery at Surrey’s Payal Business Centre and shooting on consecutive days.
Grewal told the media in India on Sunday that on Saturday night gunshots were fired near his house in the West Vancouver neighbourhood.
Hours after the shocking incident, gangster Bishnoi took responsibility, threatening the singer over his close relationship with Salman Khan.
Confirming the firing, Grewal told CNN News 18, that he was still in shock and was unable to process what had happened. The gunshots were fired between 12:30 am to 1 am.
“This happened last night, around 12:30 am to 1 am. My house is in West Vancouver, the incident took place there. We cannot comprehend what has happened and why it has happened,” he said before adding, “When this incident happened, I was shocked because I have never faced any controversies before. I have no enmity with anyone so I couldn’t even think who could have been behind the attack.”
Speaking further, the singer said that he shares no friendship with Khan, and has only met him twice. Saying that he met Salman during the trailer launch of Maujaan Hi Maujaan, Grewal told the news outlet, “The producer who backed the film (Maujaan Hi Maujaan) invited Salman to the trailer launch. I met him there. Before that, I met him on the sets of Bigg Boss. I have no friendship with Salman Khan and the anger of it is being taken out on me. For me, it is still shocking and I am unable to process what has happened to me.”
Soon after the shocking incident, a post allegedly from Bishnoi was shared. The threatening post said that the singer’s close relationship with Salman Khan was the reason behind the attack.
”Your close connection with Brother Salman will not be able to save you or protect you. It’s time for your brother [Salman] to step up and defend you. This message is also for Salman, who is thinking that Dawood Ibrahim can save you,” the statement reads.
Bishnoi has also taken credit for the murder of Punjabi gangster rapper Sidhu Moosewala last year.
