In a statement to the National Investigation Agency (NIA), which is probing the case, Bishnoi revealed who all were involved in the planning and execution and how it was carried out. 

Details Of Sidhu Moosewala’s Murder 

Moosewala Made Target 

According to NIA sources, Lawrence Bishnoi said in the statement that his gang decided to take revenge after Davinder Bambiha gang killed Gurlal Brar, a cousin of Goldy Brar, in October 2020. He said Gurlal Brar was killed because he was close to him.  

Bishnoi said that his close associate Vicky Medhukheda was killed by Davinder Bambiha gang in 2021 in Mohali, Punjab. Three shooters namely Sunny, Bholu and Anil were the shooters who killed Vicky Medhukheda. He said that it was Sidhu Mossewala’s manager Shaganpreet who had arranged the stay, and vehicles for the shooters and had also helped them in the recce of Vicky Medhukheda.  

“After that, I started making plans for killing Sidhu Moosewala,” Bishnoi confessed. 

First Attempt To Kill Moosewala 

Lawrence Bishnoi said, “In September/ October 2021, I sent three shooters namely Shahrukh, Danny and Aman to kill Sidhu Moosewala. They stayed in a village near the Moosewala's village for one week and one Mona sarpanch (gangster) and Jaggu Bhagawanpuria (gangster) members of my gang, arranged their stay.” 

Bishnoi said that the shooters informed him that the task at hand is very difficult, and they need more shooters to kill Moosewala. Following this, Bishnoi began making an elaborate plan. For this, Bihsnoi contacted his old friend and gangster Goldy Brar who helped Bishnoi get in touch with people who knew about him (Lawrence Bishnoi).

I asked him what he is going to do then he told me that Suraj r/o Jalore, Rajasthan and Amsa Bhadra Arjun, and Mahakal, Santosh Jhadav and he, are going to send the threat letter to Salman Khan in Mumbai,” he further said.

“I had sent approx. Rs 50-60 lakh via Hawala to Goldy Brar in Canada. Deepak alias Tinu, a resident of Bhiwani helped the shooters of Sidhu Moosewala to arrange the place to stay after the murder and provided them money to run and cross state borders. 

Bishnoi also explained how the entire plan was being facilitated by people sitting in Dubai and Canada.
