Lawrence Bishnoi gang claims responsibility for firing outside Delhi gym linked to Punjabi singer

On June 11, 2026, the Lawrence Bishnoi gang claimed responsibility for two gym-related shootings in India. In Delhi's Paschim Vihar, two motorcycle-borne assailants fired at least seven rounds at the '24 HS Fitness' gym — associated with singer Guru Randhawa — around 4 a.m., with no injuries reported; a social media post under the name 'Anil Pandit' cited the target's alleged closeness to Bollywood actor Salman Khan as the motive. In Haryana's Hansi, a gym owner identified as Kapil was shot dead near Fawwara Chowk during an early morning outdoor exercise session, with a woman named Shikha injured by bullet fragments; a subsequent audio message attributed to gang member Hari Boxer claimed responsibility alongside RD Dhaliwal, Harman Sandhu, and Vikram Kadhal, alleging Kapil had supported those behind a prior shooting. Separately in Canada, convicted gang foot soldier Abjeet Kingra testified at an Immigration and Refugee Board deportation hearing that he was paid $4,000 to fire 14 shots at AP Dhillon's Victoria-area home in September 2024, claiming he was unaware of the gang's involvement until he saw his own video circulated on social media. Kingra, serving a six-year sentence, also claimed the Bishnoi gang has since threatened to kill him and his family, believing him to be a police informer. The cases collectively highlight the gang's use of foreign-based operatives, social media, and audio messages to coordinate and publicize violence across India, Canada, and beyond, with Canadian authorities having opened 446 investigations and issued 118 removal orders as of May 2026.
