Online gang war over Parry’s killing intensifies, another audio clip out

The gangland conflict surrounding the killing of Inderpreet Singh, alias Parry, intensified on Wednesday after gangster Hari Boxer released an audio message, which is seen as a direct retaliation to Goldy Brar’s emotional voice note issued on Tuesday.

Boxer not only reiterated the Bishnoi group’s claim that Parry was eliminated for allegedly colluding with Brar and Rohit Godara factions, but also used the message to launch a blistering attack on Brar, who was once a close ally of the Bishnoi gang.

Brar and Bishnoi had claimed responsibility for the murder of Punjabi singer Sidhu Moosewala in 2022. They parted ways in June this year as the latter wasn’t happy with the way his brother Anmol Bishnoi’s case was handled in United States. It is believed that Brar didn’t help in filing for required bail bond for Anmol Bishnoi. After which, Bishnoi joined hands with Canada-based Noni Rana and Brar made a separate extortion gang with Azerbaijan-based gangster Godara.

In the audio, Boxer mocked Brar as an ‘online don’ who hides behind Facebook. He alleged that Brar once begged to be included in claims for the Amritsar firing. Boxer further said while Brar boasted of sheltering Lawrence Bishnoi, he should remember that “he became a gangster because of Lawrence” and couldn’t avenge his own brother’s murder. The message also referenced the killing of Sippa Bhai in Dubai, portrayed as a betrayal involving a birthday-party invitation and a stabbing from behind. According to the Bishnoi group, Parry was targeted because they believed he had a role in conspiring against Sippa.

Meanwhile, the police have issued no formal update on the investigation into Monday evening’s point-blank shooting in Sector 26 that left Parry dead. The post-mortem report has not been made public, though preliminary information indicates that at least seven bullets struck him near the chest and heart region. With 11 rounds fired at close range, investigators believe the clear intent was to ensure Parry’s death.

Parry’s last rites were performed today at the Sector 25 cremation ground. Even as family and friends gathered for the funeral, multiple teams of Chandigarh Police continued to work on the Timber Market firing case. No major arrest has been made so far.

The Panchkula police confirmed that two Crime Investigation Agency teams are assisting Chandigarh authorities in tracing the attackers’ movements after they abandoned a white Creta at the MDC Sector 5 parking.

The name of shooter Piyush Piplani has cropped up. He is wanted in the June Amravati firing that killed former kabaddi player and transporter Sonu Naulta. Piplani had also posted a video hours after the firing claiming responsibility in that case, boasting of support from Lawrence and Anmol Bishnoi. His name resurfaced again after Monday night’s post claiming responsibility for Parry’s killing carried hashtags #PiyushPiplani used by Boxer and Aarzoo Bishnoi. The attackers in the Naulta case have not been nabbed so far.
