The singer ignored phone calls he received from gangsters advising him to mend his ways, saying he too has weapons to deal with them, the sources said. The singer’s father has also told the police that Moose Wala was getting threats.

The gangsters had done a recce of the area before striking last evening, they said.

Vicky Midukheda, who was connected to the Lawrence Bishnoi gang, was murdered and investigation of the case revealed the involvement of one Shaganpreet, Sidhu Moose Wala’s manager. Members of the Lawrence Bishnoi gang have claimed that the murder was masterminded by the singer. Shaganpreet is currently in Australia.
