Three individuals linked to gangster Rohit Godara have admitted to perpetrating a shooting in Canada and issued a chilling warning of further violence. The online confession is part of a surge in violent incidents attributed to Indian criminal organizations operating in Canada, including recent attacks reportedly tied to both the Godara and Lawrence Bishnoi gangs.
In their statement, the members identified as Mahender Saran Dilana, Rahul Rinau, and Vicky Phalwan took responsibility for the shooting, declaring, “We carried out the shooting in Canada at Teji Kahlon, shooting him in the stomach. If he gets the message, good. If not, next time we will eliminate him.”
The confession alleges that the targeted individual had been supporting the gang’s adversaries by providing financial assistance, weapons, and intelligence. It asserts that the victim was involved in planning assaults against the gang’s affiliates and cautions that similar actions will face severe repercussions.
Furthermore, the confession issues explicit threats to individuals aiding the gang’s rivals, including businessmen, contractors, and financial middlemen. It warns, “If anyone unintentionally supports our enemies or aids them in any manner, we will not spare their families. We will obliterate them. This is a caution to all brethren, entrepreneurs, builders, hawala operators, and others. Any assistance will make them our adversaries. This is just the beginning. Watch what unfolds next.”
This latest revelation follows a trend of escalating gun violence in Canada, with other groups such as the Bishnoi gang also being implicated in multiple shootings. On October 16, comedian Kapil Sharma’s Kap’s Cafe in Surrey, British Columbia, was attacked for the third time in just four months, with associates of gangsters Lawrence Bishnoi, Kulveer Sidhu, and Goldy Dhillon jointly claiming responsibility for the assault on social media.
The cafe had previously been targeted on July 10 and August 7. Following these incidents, security arrangements for Kapil Sharma in Mumbai and other locations were reassessed. Another shooting incident on October 16, attributed to associates of the Bishnoi and Goldy Dhillon gangs, targeted a restaurant in Brampton.
On October 7, the Bishnoi gang carried out another shooting incident in Canada, targeting multiple properties of a restaurant owner in Surrey, accusing the owner of mistreating female employees and withholding workers’ wages.
