Cong leader Pehlwan murder case: Warrant against Canada resident

Faridkot, March 20

In the murder case of District Youth Congress president and Zila Parishad member Gurlal Singh Pehlwan, the police have procured an open-ended non-bailable arrest warrant from a local court against Canada-based Goldy Brar. He is believed to the main conspirator in the murder which was allegedly committed to avenge the killing of Goldy’s cousin, Gurlal Singh Brar, who was killed in Chandigarh on October 10, 2020.

The open-ended non-bailable warrant does not have a time limit for execution. The police also have plans to get a red-corner notice issued by Interpol against Goldy.

Brar (26) was a former state president of the Students’ Organisation of Panjab University (SOPU). He was an acquaintance of gangster Lawrence Bishnoi. After killing Brar last year, members of a group had taken the responsibility for the murder through a Facebook post, saying he was killed to avenge Lavi Deora’s murder in July 2017 at Kotkapura, allegedly by members of the Lawrence Bishnoi gang. — TNS
