A much more reliable new organization makes it clear that they have not yet identified the suspect, and this accusation was made without a shred of evidence.

Mods, I would remove this post if I were you - disseminating a completely unfounded accusation puts lives at risk.

Never heard of this site, but CBC also has no mention of the Laddi guy.

Canadian Press is like Reuters or AP, but for Canada only

Laddi is said to have ordered the shooting because he was offended by an earlier statement made by the comedian, NDTV reported.

Yeah it’s completely justified to order a shooting because of comments nothing wrong with that at all.

Canada is waiting for some white person to get caught up in all of this before they decide to do anything about it. We already know Canadians on the internet will cheer and celebrate if an Air India bombing were to happen today.

Nine shots fired at Kapil Sharma's newly-opened cafe in Canada; No injuries reported

At least nine shots were fired at comedian Kapil Sharma’s newly opened café in Canada on Wednesday, 9 July, a video posted on the social media platform X shows. No one was injured in the shooting incident.

An eight-second video posted by a user named ‘Ritesh Lakhi CA’ captures a gunman firing about nine shots at Kap’s Café from a car across the road in Surrey, in Canada’s British Columbia province.

Lakhi identified the wanted terrorist Harjit Singh Laddi as being behind the attack. “Harjit Singh Laddi, a BKI operative and NIA’s (India’s) most wanted terrorist, has claimed this shootout, citing some remarks by Kapil,” he wrote in the post.

Investigations are reportedly underway. Laddi is one of the most wanted terrorists by India’s National Investigation Agency (NIA) and is allegedly associated with Babbar Khalsa International. Laddi is said to have ordered the shooting because he was offended by an earlier statement made by the comedian, NDTV reported.

Netizens have expressed shock. “A shooting at Kapil Sharma’s café in Canada, and someone was busy filming it. Crime, content, and chaos—all in one frame,” commented Uma Shankar. Several others criticised the lack of security in Canada.

The café, launched over the weekend, marked Kapil Sharma’s foray into the restaurant business in partnership with his wife, Ginny Chatrath, banking on the growing Indian population in Canada.

The comedian was recently in the news for a sharp drop in viewership of his popular talk show, *The Great Indian Kapil Show*, which returned on Netflix for a third season. Viewership has declined by 50% since the first season.
