Who is Harjeet Singh, who opened fire at Kapil Sharma's cafe in Canada? (Social media)
World News: The recent firing incident at the Canada-based café of India’s renowned comedian Kapil Sharma has sent shockwaves not only among his fans but also across security circles. What appeared initially as a random act of violence has now revealed serious international implications, exposing a growing network of terrorist activities linked to Khalistani groups.
The attack came to light after a video went viral, showing a man stepping out of a vehicle, pulling out a pistol, and firing multiple rounds at the café. The target was Kapil Sharma’s newly inaugurated café in Canada. The accused has been identified as Harjeet Singh, alias Laddi, a resident of Garpadhana village in Punjab’s Nawanshahr district.
According to the National Investigation Agency (NIA), Harjeet Singh, also known as Laddi, is an active member of a pro-Khalistan terrorist module. He is reportedly in direct contact with handlers of banned outfits like Babbar Khalsa International (BKI) operating from abroad. The NIA has officially declared Laddi a fugitive terrorist and announced a ₹10 lakh reward for information leading to his capture.
Laddi’s name has previously surfaced in connection with the assassination of Vishwa Hindu Parishad (VHP) leader Vikas Bagga. The investigation, handed over to the NIA in 2024, found Laddi, Kulbir Singh alias Sidhu, and several others involved in a larger conspiracy. Investigators allege that Laddi has been instrumental in not only carrying out acts of violence but also in facilitating terror financing and cross-border coordination.
In a surprising development, Punjab Police has not yet registered any formal FIR against Laddi. This is despite substantial digital evidence collected by the NIA, which has listed him as "most wanted." The agency has launched a nationwide alert and has appealed to the public to share any leads through dedicated email, WhatsApp, and helpline numbers.
As of now, Kapil Sharma has not issued any official statement regarding the incident. However, several celebrities and fans have taken to social media to condemn the attack and express concern for his safety and well-being.
This attack is not merely a security concern involving a celebrity café—it symbolizes a dangerous evolution of global terrorism. The involvement of Khalistani elements and their expanding reach toward influential personalities and economic symbols is a matter of grave concern. Indian and international security agencies must treat this as a warning sign and take decisive steps to dismantle such networks operating from overseas.
