Karnal: The notorious Lawrence Bishnoi criminal organization has claimed responsibility for a targeted shooting at the residence of Gurpartap Kang, the manager for global music sensation Diljit Dosanjh. The incident occurred late Tuesday night in the village of Gondar, situated in the Karnal district of Haryana, where multiple rounds were fired at the home. In a digital statement attributed to gang members Tyson Bishnoi, Aarzoo Bishnoi, and Hari Boxer, the group asserted that high-precision Austrian weaponry was used to carry out the assault. This development has significantly escalated concerns regarding the safety of high-profile figures within the Punjabi entertainment industry and the reach of organized crime syndicates across state borders.
The gang’s social media communication characterized the gunfire as a “third and final warning” directed at Dosanjh’s management team. The syndicate alleged that their actions were prompted by reports of misconduct involving a specific member of the singer’s touring band. According to the claims, a woman from Punjab was allegedly mistreated and abandoned during a recent concert tour in Australia. The group further alleged that they had received several similar complaints regarding the same individual and accused the management team of ignoring previous demands to sever ties with the staff member. Despite the aggressive nature of the attack, the group insisted their motive was the protection of regional honour rather than financial extortion.
Law enforcement officials in Karnal have launched a rigorous investigation into the shooting, with forensic teams currently analyzing ballistic evidence and shell casings recovered from the scene in Gondar. Senior police officers confirmed that security has been heightened around the manager’s residence as they work to verify the authenticity of the social media claims and trace the origins of the post. Investigators are also reviewing surveillance footage from the area to identify the assailants and the vehicles used during the late-night strike. As the probe continues, the police are maintaining a high state of alert to prevent any further retaliatory acts or related violence.
While the Bishnoi gang noted in their statement that they are currently showing a degree of restraint due to Diljit Dosanjh’s role as an international representative of Indian culture, they issued a stern ultimatum for the immediate removal of the accused employee. The entertainment community remains on edge as this situation develops, though neither Diljit Dosanjh nor his official representatives have released a public statement regarding the shooting or the specific allegations made by the criminal group. Federal and state agencies are expected to coordinate their efforts to address this direct threat to the safety of the region’s prominent cultural ambassadors.
